UES West’s Post

The highest compliment to our team UES #uesblue is arriving at a meeting and #uesbluepops. It's the final five weeks of 2023 how can we help you get that project started or turned around. #geotechnical #environmental #testing #milestones #engineeringsciences #materialstesting #gprservices +more teamues.com

As we grow, Blue World remains true to our roots, providing clients with environmental services on an expedited basis to keep their projects rolling. We recently assisted a client in central CT, where all prior investigation and remediation efforts were believed to be complete. But to their surprise (and dismay) petroleum impacted soils were encountered during site development. Blue World obtained an expedited mark-out, mobilized a crew and equipment and quickly took care of the impacted area. Post-ex samples showed the impact was removed, and Blue World demobilized and allowed the site GC to keep on with development with a minor schedule impact of three days. Not too bad, considering many times these impacts can take weeks to overcome. #BlueWorldConstruction #remediation #excavation #soil #digandhaul #construction #heavyequipment #safety

Understanding #whatliesbeneath (is not just the title of a Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer #movie) is extremely vital to #sustainablewatermanagement and protection. In this #video, my colleague Thomas D. Krom from Bentley Systems shares a great example of how #digitaltechnology is used to manage #waterresources. #water #waterislife #naturalresource #digitaltech #techtools #engineertools #resources #themoreyouknow #thefutureishere #thefutureisnow

Project spotlight - Sustainable Remediation in Hackney Wick Simon Pike and Tom Elbourne trusted experts in the remediation field, talk you through the techniques and methods they utilised, to achieve an effective and sustainable remediation solution for our client. "I wish we'd known about Jomas from the outset of this project. They picked up on critical items the previous consultants had overlooked and they clearly communicated why these would be key areas of focus for the Environment Agency."

As populations grow and climate change impacts water availability, expanding existing reservoirs becomes an essential strategy to ensure a reliable water supply. Here are some key considerations for planning and executing a successful reservoir expansion project: 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗿 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝟭. 𝗛𝘆𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁:   • Supply and Demand: Analyze current and future water needs to determine necessary capacity increases.   • Environmental Flows: Ensure expansion doesn’t harm downstream ecosystems by maintaining adequate environmental flows. 𝟮. 𝗘𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀:   • Habitat Preservation: Mitigate impacts on wetlands and wildlife habitats with measures like creating new wetlands or wildlife corridors.   • Water Quality: Incorporate sediment management and aeration to maintain water quality. 𝟯. 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻:   • Dam and Spillway Modifications: Ensure upgrades meet safety standards and handle increased water volumes.   • Infrastructure Upgrades: Assess and improve associated infrastructure to support the expanded capacity. 𝟰. 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲:   • Permitting: Engage with regulatory agencies early to streamline permitting and ensure compliance with environmental laws. • Stakeholder Engagement: Involve local communities and stakeholders early to address concerns and gain support. 𝟱.
