onsite stormwater disposal testing & reporting

In the context of stormwater, hydraulic conductivity measures how easily water flows through soil once the soil is fully saturated. This value is essential for engineers designing drainage systems, retention basins, and other stormwater infrastructure.

If the soil has a high saturated hydraulic conductivity, water will percolate through the ground more quickly, reducing surface runoff and the potential for flooding. On the other hand, soils with low conductivity, such as clay, may lead to poor drainage, causing water to pool or require additional infrastructure to manage.

The results in this detailed report are used to guide the design of stormwater systems, ensuring that the infrastructure can handle water efficiently, prevent erosion, and reduce the risk of waterlogging or overflow during storms.
