Water Resources

Overview

Water is an important part of the world in which we live.  Surface water and stormwater modeling and design are key elements to the success of numerous development and improvement projects.

NW Engineers staff stays abreast of the changing needs in surface water and stormwater collection, conveyance, treatment, and modeling.  Whether the necessary task is sizing a storm drain pipe or a flood control channel, determining treatment options for a house or for a city, protecting a wetland or a warehouse, the team at NW Engineers has the needed experience to perform comprehensive planning, design, and management in the realm of water resources.  With the help of a wide array of computational aides, the professionals at NW Engineers have the experience to identity, evaluate, and solve a vast field of water resources issues.
