SOIL SCIENCE SERVICES

S&ME can help you determine a site’s suitability for a particular use based on soil types and conditions present at the site. We can evaluate a site’s suitability for wastewater applications, biosolids management, stormwater management, wetlands determinations, and many other regulatory permitted activities. Our soil science consulting services are also available to help you meet permitting obligations associated with these uses as well. We offer:

Soil/Site Evaluations

• Site evaluations to determine soil/site suitability for on-site wastewater treatment system options through subsurface or surface systems associated with residential and commercial development
• Evaluations, site mapping and record keeping for land application of biosolids or residual solids
• Evaluations for stormwater management systems
• Evaluations for soil remediation systems
• Soil classification and mapping using GIS and AutoCAD technology
• Wetlands delineation
• Flood hazard soil evaluations

On-Site Wastewater Treatment Systems

• Evaluations for single-family systems, community or off-site systems, commercial or industrial waste treatment systems
  Evaluations for Large (> 3,000 gallons per day) subsurface systems
• System design, layout and permitting
• Conventional and innovative subsurface systems
• Surface spray and surface drip irrigation systems
• Site specific hydraulic conductivity evaluations
• Technical assistance with permit applications through local and state regulatory agencies
• Lateral flow/mounding analysis
• Hydrogeologic investigations
• Subsurface wastewater systems operators
