Groundwater Consulting Services
We Utilise Groundwater Investigation Data
Having successfully completed hundreds of projects since 2014, we’ve amassed extensive knowledge of local groundwater conditions. Working together with stakeholders across various industries, we utilise groundwater investigation data to:
A Dewatering Management Plan (DMP) is a key document that outlines how groundwater or surface water will be safely and compliantly managed during construction or excavation works. It includes dewatering methods, water treatment processes, discharge criteria, monitoring requirements, and contingency measures to minimise environmental impact and meet regulatory obligations. DMPs are essential for a variety of projects, including commercial and civil developments, where effective groundwater management is crucial.
ENV Solutions’ Environmental Engineers and Scientists are experts in preparing DMPs, with extensive experience as specialist groundwater consultants and dewatering contractors. We have developed plans for commercial and civil developments of all sizes, and have delivered groundwater management solutions for major mining, government, industrial, and defence projects across Australia. Our integrated approach ensures each DMP is tailored to site-specific conditions, delivering efficient, practical, and compliant groundwater management solutions.
ENV are experts in developing Groundwater Contingency Management Plans, with strong technical capability in hydrogeology, environmental science, and risk management. Our team delivers site-specific, compliant plans supported by detailed data analysis and modelling to identify and address groundwater risks early and effectively.
We focus on practical, adaptive solutions with clear trigger-response actions, roles, and communication pathways. ENV’s plans are trusted across industries for their clarity, regulatory alignment, and ability to support swift action when groundwater issues arise.
ENV is a recognised expert in dewatering and surface water compliance monitoring, with extensive experience supporting major infrastructure, mining, and construction projects across Australia. Our team combines technical expertise with a deep understanding of regulatory requirements to design and implement effective monitoring programs that ensure compliance and minimise environmental impacts. We tailor each program to site-specific conditions, considering hydrology, geology, and potential risk pathways.
Our services include baseline assessments, real-time monitoring, water quality sampling, flow measurements, and detailed reporting in line with relevant guidelines and approval conditions. ENV’s practical, responsive approach enables early identification of issues and prompt implementation of mitigation measures. Clients rely on ENV to deliver accurate data, clear insights, and compliant outcomes that support project success and environmental stewardship.
ENV Solutions are experts in conducting comprehensive groundwater sampling and hydrological investigations, drawing on years of experience across diverse projects and complex site conditions. Our team utilises advanced sampling techniques and robust data analysis to accurately assess groundwater quality, flow characteristics, and contaminant profiles. This detailed understanding is essential for developing tailored dewatering and water treatment strategies that meet regulatory requirements and project goals while minimising environmental impact.
What sets ENV apart is our in-depth knowledge gained from not only designing and constructing but also owning and hiring our own dewatering and water treatment equipment. This hands-on experience gives us unique insights into equipment performance and operational challenges, enabling us to select and size systems that effectively manage contaminants such as heavy metals, PFAS, and other contaminants of concern. Our practical expertise ensures clients receive optimised solutions that deliver reliable treatment outcomes, cost efficiencies, and compliance assurance.
ENV Solutions leverages detailed groundwater data to develop and implement effective groundwater remediation strategies tailored to the unique conditions of each site. By thoroughly analysing contamination levels, groundwater flow, and hydrogeological characteristics, we design targeted groundwater remediation approaches that address the root causes of pollution. This data-driven methodology ensures that our groundwater remediation efforts are efficient, minimise environmental impact, and comply with all relevant regulatory standards.
Our in-house groundwater remediation capability is underpinned by this thorough approach to data collection and interpretation, enabling us to precisely design, operate, and monitor groundwater remediation systems. With extensive experience in managing contaminants such as heavy metals, PFAS, and other contaminants of concern, ENV Solutions combines comprehensive groundwater data with practical engineering knowledge to provide the right groundwater remediation solution.
In collaboration with our clients and regulatory authorities at both local and state levels, ENV’s environmental consultants have a proven track record in managing groundwater extraction approvals for temporary construction dewatering projects. Our expertise includes:
- Securing water supply work and/or use approvals
- Obtaining Water Access Licences (WAL)
- Facilitating the brokering and assigning share components between Water Access Licences
