Excavation
Our excavation service can ensure that your road is constructed and maintained, house site excavated, or dam created.
As population continues to increase in both urban and rural areas demands placed on our limited surface and ground water resources also increase.
We operate with local and state government in a cooperative effort to assist in implementing water quality management plans which include the implementation of best management practices when we excavate anywhere.
Nonpoint sources of pollution, which include agriculture, grazing, silviculture, construction, hydrologic and habitat modification, mining, urban runoff and waste disposal, are now recognized as the major causes of water quality degradation in the nation’s streams and rivers.
It is also recognized that the most effective means of reducing nonpoint source pollution is through a grass root level, voluntary approach in implementing best management practices and through the cooperative efforts of all those affected by the water quality problems.
Runoff and erosion can be minimized at excavation sites by implementing the following best practice management:
- creating diversion structures designed to channel runoff away from disturbed surfaces;
- structures designed to collect, retain and/or treat any water that contacts disturbed surfaces;
- permanent stabilization of exposed surfaces once construction is complete; locating roads and access where the effect on water quality will be the least;
