Ground Water
A sustainable, high quality ground water source is essential for development and growth, especially in the western United States. LA provides a wide array of services for ground water resource planning, development, and management. LA has completed hydrogeologic investigations for private individuals, small communities, large municipalities and mining clients. LA has supervised the completion of deep (greater than 2,000 feet) and shallow wells in geologically complex terrain, fractured aquifer systems, karst limestone aquifers, fractured basalt flows, sedimentary strata, and alluvial systems.
Our project experience includes hydrogeologic investigations to identify well sites based on water quality and quantity requirements. LA utilizes traditional field geologic and literature studies coupled with a knowledge and implementation of subsurface investigations to identify developable water resources. Our expertise includes all aspects of water rights permitting, water well design and well construction administration. LA completes ground water sampling and testing, aquifer testing and ground water monitoring studies. Our specialized efforts include hydrogeologic impact assessments, ground water flow and transport modeling, hydrogeochemical studies and modeling, and long-term evaluation of future water demand.
