Sustainable Floodplain Management

Princeton Hydro combines our strength in hydrologic and hydraulic modeling with our expertise in aquatic and terrestrial ecology to provide clients sustainable floodplain management solutions that look beyond the traditional engineering approach of increasing "flood capacity".

We implement non-structural and structural techniques including infrastructure retrofit and upgrades, property acquisition, structure elevations, relocations, and flood-proofing to reduce community risk. We also help our clients determine if a project is eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grant programs, prepare grant applications, concept and final designs, and manage the project from start to finish.

Our company's integration of services has resulted in award-winning projects that include the creation of functioning wetlands and floodplains proven to attenuate flow and reduce flood damage, conduit day-lighting, floodplain benching, and flood backflow prevention. Our services include:

  • Floodplain creation and restoration
  • Riparian corridor management
  • Hydrologic and hydraulic modeling
  • Flood mitigation design
  • FEMA all hazard community planning
  • FEMA hazard mitigation grant applications and implementation
  • FEMA floodplain mapping
  • FEMA Letter of Map Revision (LOMR)
  • Levee setback
  • Flow monitoring and stormwater sampling
