Support is also sought for statistical analyses of data results. Study design and study sites will be decided based upon input from selected Installations, ERDC-CERL, Sponsoring Agency, and CESU partners.<\/p>\n<p>Details of primary tasks for Year 1 are as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Primary Task 1: Smart Sensor Design and Fabrication<br \/>\nSensors shall be able to collect real-time data on solid waste weight generation in interior waste containers and send that data to a sequestered data repository accessible to CERL researchers. Due to variability in container dimensions, sensors need a flexible design that can be tailored to each container. Sensors shall be fabricated by the awardee.<\/p>\n<p>Primary Task 2: Sensor Installation<br \/>\nSensors shall be placed in all interior waste containers at two (2) military Installations. At each Installation, sensors will be installed in interior waste containers at up to two (2) dining facilities, the common areas of up to two (2) office buildings, and the common areas of up to two (2) barracks buildings. Installation of sensors shall take place in summer 2022 at the selected Installations.<\/p>\n<p>Primary Task 3: Data Collection<br \/>\nData collection shall take place over a period of up to three (3) months, with ten (10) to twelve (12) weeks anticipated.<\/p>\n<p>Primary Task 4: Statistical Analyses<br \/>\nUsing standard statistical methods, data shall be analyzed.<\/p>\n<p>Agency Contact<br \/>\nPhoebe Fuller, Grants Specialist<br \/>\nUS Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer Research and Development Center<br \/>\n3909 Halls Ferry Road<br \/>\nVicksburg, MS 39180-6199<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:Phoebe.v.fuller@usace.army.mi\">Phoebe.v.fuller@usace.army.mi<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9433,"featured_media":34065,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_s2mail":"yes"},"categories":[130],"tags":[4,28,33,141,13,9],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46035"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9433"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46035"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46035\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":46036,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46035\/revisions\/46036"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34065"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46035"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46035"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46035"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
