Under an on-call with LADWP, we provided geotechnical and hydrogeologic support for this major groundwater aquifer evaluation. The goal was to restore and augment water supplies, which were previously diminished due to antiquated facilities and water quality concerns. It included exploratory pilot hole drilling and the design and installation of monitoring wells and municipal production wells to depths up to 1,500 feet. Our scope included daily oversight of drilling activities using direct-rotary and reverse-rotary methods, water quality testing and evaluation, aquifer parameter testing and analysis, geophysical testing and evaluation, monitoring well design, production well design and construction oversight, well development, and flow testing activities.
