MITIGATING RISK WITH HYDROGEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS
EXPERT HYDROGEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION FOR GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT
At PRI Engineering, our expertise extends to the intricate complexities of groundwater systems. Our team is equipped to conduct comprehensive hydrogeological investigations, crucial for construction dewatering projects and other hydrogeological studies. Conducting a groundwater investigation is crucial in understanding and managing groundwater effectively and is key to mitigating risks and ensuring the success of your engineering projects.
BREAKDOWN OF A DEWATERING MANAGEMENT PLAN
Our dewatering management plans are meticulously developed to address the challenges of water on construction sites. These plans are crucial for:
MINIMIZING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
We ensure that our dewatering practices reduce environmental impacts, particularly in sensitive ecosystems.
COST-EFFECTIVE WATER MANAGEMENT
By effectively managing onsite water, we help reduce the associated costs and risks, ensuring project efficiency.
COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS
Our plans are designed to meet all regulatory requirements, including submissions for Permits to Take Water (PTTW) when necessary.
COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO HYDROGEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS
Our hydrogeological investigation process includes several pivotal steps:
PRELIMINARY DESKTOP REVIEW
We conduct a thorough review of the site’s topography and existing groundwater table studies. This initial assessment helps in understanding the site's hydrogeological context.
ON-SITE GROUNDWATER ANALYSIS
Utilizing advanced in-situ testing methods like falling/rising head tests, permeameter testing, and packer testing, we analyze groundwater and soil interactions directly at the site.
CUSTOMIZED DEWATERING RECCOMENDATIONS
Based on our findings, we provide tailored recommendations for dewatering during construction and ongoing groundwater control. This ensures efficient water management throughout the project lifecycle.
DEVELOPMENT OF SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
We prepare comprehensive documents to support your PTTW submission, ensuring all regulatory requirements are met.
ONSITE OVERSIGHT AND ADMINISTRATION
In addition to planning and recommendations, PRI Engineering provides onsite oversight and administration of soil erosion and sediment control plans. Our hands-on approach ensures that the strategies are implemented effectively and adapted as needed throughout the project.
