Mark Spanjers, a civil engineering doctoral candidate, was the recipient of the 2012 Philip Jones Award for his presentation entitled “Comparison of 4 media types for traditional and biofiltration treatment goals: Assessment of rough engineered media and implications for filter media choice.” His work was presented February 21 at the 47th Central Canadian Symposium on Water Quality Research. A major goal of the Canadian Association on Water Quality is to showcase the talents of students who conduct water quality research. The Philip Jones Award was created as a memorial to Philip H. Jones who was a long-standing member of the CAWQ and a driving force in the development of the organization.
