About Us Clients & Projects Village of Ada - First fully endorsed wellhead protection plan in northwest Ohio and further implementation of the plan

Pioneering source water protection planning – essentially defining how source water protection was to be done 1990-1998 in Northwest Ohio. Work included delineation conducted with MODFLOW-MODPATH, using onsite data (aquifer testing, fracture analysis), and planning protection practices. The delineation submitted was one of the first in northwestern Ohio and was a test-bed for acceptance of MODFLOW-MODPATH delineation in the carbonate aquifer (building on existing Ohio State University experience). The PPSI was relatively detailed due to the long industrial history and numerous glacial layer perforations in the vicinity of the wellfield. The MEP was the first endorsed in northwest Ohio, and was endorsed with little request for modification by the Ohio EPA.

What kind of work do we do? Here is an example:

U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Ecological Research and Investigations Group (some via URS Greiner/Woodward Clyde Federal Services), Denver, CO

Review of well maintenance and performance problems, Closed Basin Project, Alamosa, CO, with review of rehabilitation plans, consultation on future maintenance activities, research on causes and development of a maintenance plan. Final report with comprehensive review of causes, hydrogeological aspects, effectiveness of past treatment, and detailed recommendations provided.

Services to BOR Dam Safety Division: Conduct a field evaluation of biofouling in an earthen dam drainage system and provide recommendations for rehabilitation and maintenance treatment as part of a multidisciplinary team. Treatments have to be designed to avoid negative impact on downstream ecological resources. Pilot studies and comprehensive system-wide planning of treatment for dams are in process, starting with analyses of clogging and corrosion potential and lab-scale modeling projects.

Our relationship with BOR has extended over 10 years.
