   abstract: Projects have included sites contaminated with chlorinated solvents,
     petroleum and polyaromatic hydrocarbons, chlorobenzenes, polychlorinated biphenyls,
     and metals. Ms. Majcher managed multiple projects at a U.S. Army CERCLA site,
     in which green sampling techniques were utilized. She has served as the project
     manager and co-principal investigator for several multi-year projects investigating
     dissolved, mixed organic contamination in wetland environments and the migration
     of contaminants into indoor air. She managed and directed projects identifying
     and characterizing contaminant breakthrough to surface water in tidal wetlands
     through areas of focused discharge, and designed and implemented novel bioremediation
     options at the pilot scale.More recently, her private and public sector experience
     has been applied to coordination of several workshops and serving as the co-chairperson
     for the Actionable Science subgroup of the Urban Waters Partnership program
     in Baltimore, Maryland. Her and her colleagues are exploring factors of influence
     on long-term trends in water quality related to bacteria, nutrients, and chloride,
     addressing monitoring and remediation of PCBs in urban stormwater and sediment.Emily
     has actively served as a mentor in formal and informal programs since 2001 and
     have a particular interest in promoting and encouraging women in science and
     engineering. Most recently, she served as a mentor for a Chesapeake Bay Trust
     Conservation Corps member, where USGS served as the host agency for one year.PUBLICATIONSMajcher,
