Hitting groundwater is never fun on a construction project. 😩
One minute you're cruising through excavation, and the next, bam, water starts flowing in, turning your site into a muddy mess, creating safety hazards, delaying the schedule, and risking extra costs if it's not managed properly.
But here's the good news: our team doesn't get rattled. We've tackled groundwater head-on across multiple Utah projects. Our crew brings extensive hands-on experience dealing with Utah's unique groundwater conditions, including the need to comply with strict state regs like the Utah DEQ's Construction Dewatering and Hydrostatic Testing General Permit (UTG070000).
We know how to:
- Quickly evaluate the site and choose the best dewatering approach (wellpoints, deep wells, sump pumps, or bypass systems)
- Set up, monitor, and maintain systems to safely lower the water table and stabilize the excavation
- Handle discharge responsibly; filtering, treating, and discharging in full compliance with environmental standards to protect local waterways
- Keep the project on track by integrating dewatering seamlessly into the schedule, minimizing downtime and keeping crews safe and productive
We've turned what could be major setbacks into routine, controlled operations, safer sites, drier conditions, compliant discharges, and projects that finish on time and on budget.
