Water resources, planning, and management

We offer a range of services to help public and private entities monitor water supply and ensure quality, while meeting the needs of end users and preserving local landscapes. We support government programs for water quality improvement, environmental restoration, productive reuse, and strategic environmental resource planning. We also provide services relating to watershed management, seawater and coastal hydrology, groundwater and aquifers, streams and reservoir enhancement and rehabilitation, water rights, and irrigation.

Food, forests, and fuels

In the agricultural sector, we offer assessment, modelling, design, and consultation to span the planning, design, construction, and operation of water supply and irrigation schemes for traditional food crop, forestry, and biomass projects. Our intelligent irrigation design is based on global expertise and local knowledge of specific soils, crops, and climates. In the mining and landfill industries, we supply expertise in areas such as water supply, characterization studies, surface water, and pit lakes.

Water Futures

Almost all human activity depends on water. Today, around one third of the world’s population lives in water-stressed areas—1.8 billion people still drink unsafe water. Severe flooding and drought are occurring more often, with devastating effects all over the world. The intersection of water, energy, food, and climate change is an overarching megatrend that will shape our world in the coming decades. Our increasingly complex and interconnected world faces unprecedented economic, geopolitical, and environmental challenges.
