. Water analysis for this first design was notperformed.Based on feedback, student in the 2011-12 GEO course worked with several faculty membersand a water laboratory manager from the local city to develop an improved water filter. Thedesign involved a single 13-gallon trash can to remove the need for multiple buckets and toprovide better stability on the islands. This time, 0.5 to 1-inch diameter gravel (1 ¼ inches high),1-5 mm diameter course sand (1 ¼ inches high), and 0.15-0.3 mm diameter fine sand (13 incheshigh) were used. The effective filtration height was similar to the 2010-11 design. Sand waswashed and separated using mesh and washing techniques. Three filters were built with severalof the islanders. Water was poured, when needed, onto
