Dredging & Sediment
Removal

We provide efficient dredging and sediment removal services to restore pond depth, capacity and water quality. Ponds with accumulated sediment can lead to algae, flooding, and non-compliance fines. Our low-impact industry leading solutions like hydraulic dredging will restore your stormwater pond safely and efficiently while minimizing impact.

Planting & Vegetation
Management

Aquatic plants are a key design element in stormwater ponds and wetlands to help with settling and removal of solids and pollutants. However, aquatic plant requirements and installation can be complex and costly. We install beneficial native plants that improve water quality and aesthetics, while treating your pond to meet local regulatory standards.

Our innovative strategies, such as geotubes and coir logs safely restore your shorelines.
