Development
The adequacy of and impacts to natural resources have created challenges for many major metropolitan areas throughout the U.S. The most common development stresses are on water supplies, affordable land available for development, management of industrial and municipal wastewater, surface water drainage and control, energy generation, and solid waste management.
Solutions to address these concerns take the form of management and planning for the protection of water quality and quantity, redevelopment of impaired properties in urban areas promoting economic growth and prosperity, and siting, design, and construction of infrastructure to address the long-term energy, solid waste, and wastewater treatment demands.
Benefits derived from effective planning and infrastructure development include long-term water supplies and energy resources required to meet continued urban sprawl, economic revitalization of impaired inner city property, and increases in revenues and tax base needed to support local and regional governmental bodies.
GeoTrans has assisted municipalities, water purveyors, and utilities in evaluating water resource supply and development, siting of energy generation facilities, and converting impaired properties to productive use through brownfield and other redevelopment approaches.
Our resource development services focus on assisting clients in resource planning, management, and engineering design and construction management of solutions to achieve the desired business outcome.
