 Comprehensive water supply planning has become the key issue at the local and regional level. Increases in population, growth of industry, development, and growing public awareness of environmental protection combine to create stresses on limited water resources. GZA has performed hundreds of projects where the focus has been on the development or protection of potable water supplies. We have also helped clients with a wide array of issues including: protection strategies to address impacts from local contaminant sources, managing withdrawal rates, and estimating safe yield of the aquifers.
We can help in:
- Identifying current water supply needs and forecasting future needs;
- Investigating potential future water supply sites;
- Understanding supply, storage, and distribution systems;
- Evaluating system capacity to meet current and future needs;
- Quantifying the interaction between surface water and groundwater;
- Recognizing potential conflicting or competing water uses and environmental threats to sources.
