Water Resources

Our natural water resources and the environment play a role in almost every project.  At JMD, we have a firm grasp of the hydrologic and hydraulic principles that control these resources and we do our best to help your project work with the surrounding environment, rather than become unraveled by it.  We have a boots on the ground approach to understanding the natural conditions of a site and the modeling expertise to be able to analyze systems in depth.

Our staff’s years of expertise and training allow us to offer a wide range of services, from planning / feasibility studies to final design and construction.  In addition, we have a strong understanding of the  environmental permitting regulations encompassing our natural resources.  Some of our services are described below.
