Water Assessments

  • Ground Water

    Hydrogeological assessments are required for almost any development that could impact aquifers, and we offer a wide range of services and solutions to understand local and regional conditions.  We also undertake groundwater assessments to identify potential sites to locate bores.

    Our field services include:

    Design and installation of monitoring bores

    Slug testing for hydraulic conductivity measurement

    Flow direction and groundwater gradient measurement

    Our reporting capabilities include:

    Desktop studies

    Hydrogeological mapping and modelling

    Recharge, discharge, and transmissivity of aquifers

    Groundwater resource assessment

    Salinity assessment

    Groundwater contamination assessment

  • Surface Water

    We conduct hydrological assessments typically for Controlled Activity Approvals (CCA) which include:

    Stream order classification

    Stream characterisation by flow type (perennial, intermittent or ephemeral)

    Channel pattern characterisation

    Stream flow and discharge estimates

    Hydraulic, hydrologic, geomorphic, and ecological function of a watercourse

    Width and function of the riparian corridor

    Assessment of interflow and connectivity with groundwater

We provide specialist water assessment services in a wide range of water-related fields.
