For over a decade, Princeton Hydro’s staff of scientists and engineers have assisted our golf course clients by addressing on their behalf the environmental, ecological and regulatory issues facing the golf course industry. For established courses, we provide maintenance services for ponds, streams and wetlands, and aid superintendents with regulatory compliance issues. With Princeton Hydro on your team, you will be assured that your golf course’s ponds and waterways truly compliment the appearance of your course.

For proposed golf courses, we provide ecological and engineering services associated with environmental permitting and regulatory reviews. This includes environmental impact analysis, design of storm water quality features, pollutant load and fate/transport modeling, and technical assistance with groundwater, surface water, and wetland resources permitting. We have the technical expertise needed to successfully conduct the investigations, monitoring, modeling and analyses associated with all aspects pertaining to surface water, groundwater and wetland concerns facing the golf course architect, developer, superintendent and owner. This is especially true with respect to the careful planning, use and conservation of valuable water resources, whether for new or existing sources of water, the construction of a new course or the expansion of an existing facility. Our services include water use record reviews and water loss assessments, computation of hydrologic budgets, water allocation reports, preparation of drought management and drought contingency plans and the maintenance, design and construction of irrigation ponds.

GPS and GIS technology is used extensively in our golf course projects; starting with design, continuing through the permitting and construction phase and even as part of the routine services offered as part of maintenance operations and regulatory compliance.
