   personal_statement: Jennifer Given Savoie has participated in a wide variety of
     ground and surface-water quality studies throughout the course of her career.
     Much of her early career was spent working with the USGS Toxics Substances Hydrology
     Program on Cape Cod looking at water quality near a sewage-contaminated groundwater
     plume. More recent studies include changes in phosphorus in the Assabet River
     following the upgrade of several wastewater treatment plants and analysis of
     trends in surface water quality in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. She is currently
     working on a project looking at aluminum and organic carbon in surface-water
     bodies near drinking water and wastewater treatment plants in Massachusetts.Jennifer
     has also participated in groundwater flow modeling projects and the use of alternative
     techniques to detect organic compounds in the environment and determine source
     of contaminants, the use of varying methods to determine age dates of ground
     water, and geophysical methods such as conductance and gamma logging to determine
     lithology and saltwater/freshwater interface and cross-hole radar scanning for
     detection of permeable reactive barriers.
