Hydrogeology

Drill rig At HWA, our hydrogeologists are experts in hydrostratigraphy, ground water/surface water interactions, ground water development, ground water monitoring and ground water protection. Our long-term presence in the Northwest and knowledge of local ground water conditions gives us the experience necessary to assess, develop and protect ground water resources with a practical, solution-oriented approach to projects of all sizes.

Typical services related to ground water include:

  • Ground water exploration and development
  • Well design, specifications, and construction
  • Well testing and rehabilitation
  • Aquifer testing
  • Ground water sampling and monitoring
  • Wellhead protection delineations and plans
  • Analytical and numerical ground water modeling
  • Water rights permitting assistance
  • Aquifer yield analysis and hydrologic budgeting
  • Ground water quality statistical analysis

HWA has applied these services to the following types of projects:

  • Ground water supply infiltration
  • Wastewater / stormwater infiltration and land application
  • Construction dewatering design
  • Solid waste investigations, monitoring, and permitting
  • Hazardous waste investigations
  • Environmental Assessments / Environmental Impact Statements
