Underground Injection Control

Underground Injection Control

Protecting drinking water and complying with strict regulations are key challenges in safely managing the underground injection of waste, fluids, and gases. Trihydro addresses these challenges with expert underground injection control (UIC) and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) services. We design custom systems that meet EPA Safe Drinking Water Act regulations. With our experience and technical expertise, we provide reliable, environmentally responsible solutions for sequestration, disposal, and resource recovery.

Feasibility Studies

Trihydro offers detailed feasibility studies tailored to technical, regulatory, and client requirements to identify potential injection well locations based on geography and geology. By evaluating geological, hydrological, and operational risks early in the process, we help clients assess project viability and improve long-term success.

UIC Testing and Monitoring
Underground Injection Control

Testing and Monitoring

Testing and monitoring programs support underground injection control (UIC) well safety, regulatory compliance, and environmental protection. We design and implement baseline monitoring systems to document pre-injection environmental conditions, providing a critical reference for evaluating post-injection impacts or investigating potential issues.

Trihydro’s UIC monitoring services include:

  • Environmental monitoring at surface, near-surface, and subsurface levels
  • Remote telemetry, data acquisition, and analysis
  • Aquifer health, vegetation, and vadose zone assessments
  • Coordination with operators on passive seismic monitoring systems

UIC Data Management and Reporting

Underground injection control (UIC) operations generate large volumes of environmental and operational data that require structured and efficient management. Trihydro supports these requirements by developing and implementing key regulatory and technical plans, including:

  • Quality Assurance and Surveillance Plans (QASP)
  • Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) Plans
  • Testing and Monitoring Plans
  • Pre-operational Logging and Testing Plans

UIC Permitting and Regulatory Management

UIC Permitting and Regulatory Management

The regulatory requirements for underground injection control (UIC) wells can be complex. Trihydro guides clients through every step of the permitting process, leveraging strong relationships with federal and state agencies and staying current on evolving policies and regulations. Because UIC projects often require multiple permits beyond the injection well itself, we provide integrated environmental and engineering support for the entire project site and facility.

Our enhanced services include:

  • Clean Air Act permitting
  • Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Subpart RR reporting
  • Leak detection and monitoring for facilities, pipelines, and wellheads
  • National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance
  • National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting and Clean Water Act Section 404 and 401 certifications
  • Threatened and Endangered Species (T&E) assessments
  • CARB site certification support (for Class VI projects)
