The successful protection, enhancement and management of our watersheds and their resources requires an astute understanding of ecological principles. Alteration of the landscape can have far reaching consequences that affect a wide array of ecological attributes ranging from water quality to biodiversity. A well prepared watershed management plan can serve as the primary tool in the prevention or mitigation of such environmental impacts.
Princeton Hydro combines data derived through detailed in-field resource investigations together with data generated through environmental modeling and land use analyses to formulate strongly grounded watershed management plans. Integration, interpretation and presentation of these data are facilitated by our full service Geographic Information System mapping capabilities. Our expertise regarding Federal and State permitting regulations ensures our watershed protection and restoration projects comply with regulatory requirements and standards, and are suitable for implementation funding.
