Water and Natural Resources Consulting
Providing water and natural resources consulting, including water rights planning and permitting, and water supply development.
The well-being of our nation depends on sustainable supplies of both energy and water. Trihydro offers a diverse array of water and natural resources consulting services throughout the U.S., and we have assisted clients through multiple project phases, including site investigations, permitting, sampling, reclamation, design, construction, and compliance.
The emphasis of our water resources practice is in the identification, planning, and development of water resources, including NEPA environmental assessment and water rights consulting. Our technical expertise encompasses surface water resource development and groundwater monitoring and remediation.
Trihydro has the capacity to address all aspects of both small and large water resource projects and has successfully completed projects to identify, test, permit, and develop water supplies in the western U.S. for both commercial and municipal entities. In addition, we have completed successful storage projects, including both water reservoir design and small dam design, that serve a variety of purposes, including reservoir supply, wastewater treatment, storm water runoff management, flood control, recreation, and stock and wildlife watering.
As our nation’s water resources become more depleted, especially in the western states, planning and permitting (with respect to both environmental concerns and water rights) involve very complex and nuanced issues that require sound engineering judgment and an in-depth understanding of the federal and state regulatory framework controlling resource development.
Our senior staff includes acknowledged experts with diverse experience in the science, engineering practices,laws that govern the appropriation of water, and federal guidelines such as Clean Water Act regulations.
Additional natural resources consulting services provided by Trihydro include wetland delineation, site reclamation, groundwater monitoring and remediation, and revegetation. Our project experience includes reclamation of disturbed lands associated with operating and closed mines, energy exploration, production sites, and refineries.
