About Us Clients & Projects Spencerville, Ohio – Source water delineation and testing and modeling for strategic water planning

Spencerville has a high-capacity carbonate-aquifer wellfield in a politically and technically sensitive aquifer setting (a designated sole-source aquifer) in which both public water suppliers and private-well owners maintain marginal ground water supplies. Work included analysis of studies by other consultants in the area and technical liaison with the state and neighboring communities, WHPA delineation using MODFLOW, based on detailed local data collection, well capacity testing and regional aquifer-scale testing to update the numerical model of the wellfield.well testing at Spencerville

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.
