Paving the Way for Success in Water Management
Owing to its capabilities, many clients seek out AQUALIS to alleviate their stormwater and wastewater challenges. Stormwater infrastructure is aging across the country, burdening property owners previously unaware of the need for regular maintenance. AQUALIS’ dedicated internal teams guarantee compliance, imbibing social and environmental responsibility in the projects. Whether routine maintenance, rehabilitation, or design, AQUALIS offers tailored solutions to prevent issues and promote sustainable water management.
The organization’s proactive maintenance approach promotes system longevity, environmental protection, and cost efficiency, setting it apart in the industry. This is evident in AQUALIS’ ability to handle complex environmental issues like alleviating a notice of violation (NOV) issued to a multifamily apartment complex in Washington in response to polluted waters found downstream. The water was tested, revealing an illicit connection channeling polluted water into stormwater vaults. The entire stormwater system required cleaning; AQUALIS identified and repaired the illicit connections and removed 600,000 gallons of contaminated water to properly restore the vault.
During the process, the firm uncovered multiple additional unknown connections, including a groundwater spring. After notifying the property owners and local municipalities, AQUALIS not only remediated the issues but also redesigned and reconnected the pipes for better water infiltration. The team removed and properly disposed the contaminated sludge, ensuring downstream rivers and streams were no longer at risk. AQUALIS cleaned these water bodies, restoring them to their natural states. The remediation pleased regulators, rendering the property violation and pollution free, reassuring tenants about their living conditions.
“And that’s where AQUALIS comes in; we are able to maintain stormwater systems to avoid extreme failures and NOVs. However, if a system does need to be rebuilt, we are able to redesign and reconstruct stormwater management systems to full compliance in aesthetic, sustainable, and innovative ways that benefit our clients and the environment,” Matero adds.
When faced with issues of environmental health, safety, and corporate governance, companies trust AQUALIS to return their properties to full compliance. From addressing violations to implementing innovative stormwater designs, AQUALIS embodies a commitment to environmental sustainability and is at the forefront of sustainable water management. With a proven record of regulatory satisfaction, environmental protection, property restoration, and tenant assurance, it continues to safeguard and nurture resources, recognizing that environmental sustainability is a responsibility for shaping a cleaner, greener tomorrow.
