HYDROGEOLOGY

Hydrogeological Assessments

Terrapex’s hydrogeological assessments range from desktop assessments of the groundwater regime on a regional basis, to detailed investigations through borehole drilling and monitoring well installations to assess parcels of land for future development. 

Terrapex’s expertise is in satisfying hydrogeological assessment requirements of municipalities and conservation authorities to permit proposed site works.  Accurate measurements of water table and piezometric surfaces are prepared.  Construction dewatering rates and post-construction groundwater seepage rates are calculated for permitting and groundwater management needs.  Groundwater quality is assessed to determine the appropriate treatment and receiving sewer for groundwater discharge.
