ENVIRONMENTAL
Solmar Hydro routinely collects hydrographic and hydrodynamic data to aid the environmental science community in managing and monitoring marine habitats.
Example projects we support include contaminated site remediation, water treatment plant outfall studies, benthic habitat characterization, reservoir capacity determination, and FEMA floodplain evaluations.
