Water-Resource Management

As our cities continue to grow the need for adequate freshwater supply increases. WRScompass has the equipment and skills to improve existing canals, levees, and reservoirs, or design and construct new control structures.

Additionally, our water-resource restoration and improvement services include industrial and municipal wastewater effluent, stormwater runoff, groundwater aquifers, streams, lakes, wetland ecosystems, and coastal tidewater estuaries.

Water Resource Infrastructure

Many of our nation's dikes and reservoirs are in need of repair, or new water control structures are needed to keep up with the population growth. Customers need a contractor who will respond quickly. WRScompass has the tools to design and construct water control structures. This includes building levees, digging canals, or even constructing reservoirs.

Surface-Water and Wetlands

Federal, state, and local government agencies recognize the important role that stream channels and wetlands serve in sustaining water quality, wildlife habitats, soil retention, aquifer recharge, flood control, and countless other functions integral to larger and more complex ecosystems.

The collective value of preserving wetlands has translated into an emerging market for companies with the resources and expertise to perform wetlands remediation and water resource restoration services.
