What kind of work do we do? Here is an example:
Village of Danville, OH - Develop a new wellfield
Danville has developed a new wellfield and water treatment plant, being designed by Bird+Bull, Columbus, Ohio. Ground Water Science worked with the village to deal with existing well water quality problems, conduct exploration in the wellfield to find optimal well positions in the mixed sandstone-shale sequence; design, test and certify new wells; and bring them to production, most recently siting and testing a very high capacity rock well.
Ground Water Science also supervised cleaning a well and has been assisting the village with an ammonia in ground water at the wastewater treatment facility. This work demonstrates our versatility in assisting clients on a range of ground-water technical issues.

Free Tip of the Day
“We learn the value of water when the well goes dry,” said Benjamin Franklin. The cost of properly maintaining your ground water assets pales in comparison to the social and economic disaster that would result from a failed community water supply.
