As the West’s rural communities experience unprecedented growth, the need for wider roads to carry increased traffic volumes is often at odds with existing irrigation systems. Our Water Resources Team has helped many communities address the challenges posed by irrigation canals next to major county roads. Our engineers have experience in irrigation system design for open channel, gravity pipeline, canal to pipeline, and pressure pipeline applications.
We software like ArcGIS, WaterGEMS, SRH-2D, and HEC-RAS to model during both planning and design. Our engineers use both open-source data as well as hydraulic survey data collected by our survey teams in their modeling.
When your project is situated in or near a floodplain, there are many factors that can put your project or the community at risk of flooding. Our Certified Floodplain Managers (CFM) have experience assessing flood risk, and working with local floodplain managers, state regulators, and FEMA to mitigate those risks. Let us help you with your floodplain risk assessment and permitting needs, including local floodplain development permitting, FEMA permitting, Letters of Map Revision (LOMR), Conditional LOMR’s, and No-Rise certifications.
