FIELD STUDIES AND INVESTIGATIONS
Black & Veatch maintains a staff of in-house environmental scientists and engineers
who conduct the comprehensive field investigations required to evaluate and characterize
sites being considered for project development, expansion, or remediation. The results
of these studies can be used in project planning to minimize adverse impacts to
natural resources and to identify the project concept most likely to proceed to
a successful development effort. Black & Veatch can provide the following studies
to support your project.
- Wetland Delineations
- Vegetation Surveys and Mapping
- Protected Species Surveys and Habitat Evaluation
- Aquatic Habitat Studies
- Visual Impact and Recreation Resource Analysis
- Remedial Investigations
- Risk Assessment
- Soil, Groundwater, Sediment, Surface Water and Biota Sampling
- Ambient Noise Surveys
- Site Air Monitoring
We maintain state of the art monitoring equipment and on-line access to federal
and state databases and mapping to facilitate site characterization. We can also
provide full Geographic Imaging System (GIS) support to map the results of field
investigations.
