Eco conducts hydrogeologic investigations required to define and analyze aquifers and the behavior and characteristics of ground water. Such investigations encompass a wide range of investigative, analytical, and reporting procedures to understand and characterize aquifers. Eco performs surface water investigations required to support the hydrologic characterization of a basin and to analyze impacts of proposed projects. Additionally, surface water characteristics are investigated in support of site characterization studies at hazardous waste sites or landfill sites.
The staff at Eco has over 20 years of experience working on a wide range of services in water supply development, water quality investigations, and water contamination remediation. Water supply development entails well design, installation and development, aquifer pumping tests, and water quality analysis. Water quality investigations analyze the native water quality, agricultural infiltration and runoff, seawater intrusion, and leaking underground storage tanks.
