Hydrogeologic Investigations

HMM’s hydrogeological specialists are employed on a wide range of projects, from small urban properties to entire watersheds. The majority of our staff holds advanced degrees and are registered professionals. They evaluate and develop groundwater resources; delineate contamination and predict impacts on human and ecological receptors; provide the technical basis for the design of subsurface wastewater disposal, construction dewatering and aquifer remediation systems; generate hydrogeologic models, frame computer simulations and perform statistical analyses for risk assessments and resource prospecting; provide full technical assistance in permitting in all these areas; provide peer review for the work of outside hydrogeologists; advise legal counsel and provide expert testimony.  Our hydrogeologic services include:
