Science

Sound science helps inform decision makers on how to properly manage the aquifer of this region. Over the years we have worked hard to establish relationships with the scientific community so that we can lend our expertise to help them conduct their studies. Geology, biology, botany, anthropology, archaeology, hydrology, aerial photogrammetry, underwater photogrammetry, remote sensing, climatology, and GIS are just a few of the scientific disciplines we have worked with.
