How We Help

 
 

Construction MANAGEMENT and inspection

Earth Data provides comprehensive Construction Management and Inspection (CM/I) services over a wide range of water supply and environmental projects. Earth Data’s inspectors are OSHA 10-hour certified, receive annual training in American Red Cross first aid and CPR, and have completed Erosion and Sediment Control training as required by the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE). Earth Data has provided CM/I services for the construction, development, testing, sampling, redevelopment, reconstruction and abandonment of literally hundreds of wells ranging in depth from less than 100 feet to more than 2,000 feet deep.

All inspectors are provided with 4G-enabled tablets. We have developed a series of custom-designed inspection and reporting forms using the Fulcrum mobile platform. These forms are maintained on Earth Data’s server and can be uploaded to the cloud to provide timely, accurate information anywhere, at any time, during any phase of construction.


Exploration and Testing

Earth Data geologists and hydrogeologists are highly qualified and trained to assess the sustained yields of wells, well fields and aquifers, the interference between wells and well fields, the relationship between groundwater withdrawals and surface water flow, and water quality. Additionally, our team will analyze the ongoing effectiveness of a proposed withdrawal on existing groundwater users.
