HTPO is experienced in hydrologic analysis of watershed basins, hydraulic design of retention ponds, treatment ponds, storm sewers, and other drainage facilities, erosion control, sediment removal, and wetland management. We have also served as municipal consultants to review development drainage proposals for conformance with adopted management plans.
Virtually all of our engineering projects contain elements of water resources engineering. On-site drainage designs are carefully reviewed for compatibility with overall systems and their compliance with appropriate regulating agencies’ requirements and management plans.
Project experience includes:
Skyview / McKenzie
