Case’s Engineers Without Borders hace una diferencia en el mundo
Translation: Case’s Engineers Without Borders recently traveled to Cruce de Blanco, Dominican Republic for some initial research. After three visits, they have finally collected enough data to begin designing a brand new water system for the rural community of 600 people.
During their nine day trip, four Case students and two professional engineers met with the community to discuss options and studied different water sources that could possibly be utilized. After a semester of designing, students will return to Cruce de Blanco to begin the construction and implementation of miles of pipeline, filtration, storage and other components that will bring clean drinking water from a mountain stream to the village.
