  • Floodplain Management

    Specialized floodplain management services including FEMA floodplain studies and analysis, CLOMR/LOMR, and LOMA applications address floodplain mapping and regulatory requirements. We provide elevation certificates and no-rise certifications to ensure compliance with floodplain regulations. Our team also offers local floodplain permitting consultation, floodproofing and retrofitting consultation, and expert advice on floodplain reconnection to restore natural flood processes. These services help communities reduce flood risks, enhance resilience, and ensure compliance with federal and local floodplain management standards.

  • Science-Based Assessments

    We offer comprehensive science-based assessment services that include geomorphic investigations, habitat and channel health assessments, and watershed and reach-scale evaluations. Our expertise extends to master planning and prioritization, wetland delineations, and fish passage, fisheries, and wildlife assessments. We conduct feasibility planning to ensure the success of restoration projects, while also assessing water quality and underwater topography mapping to inform design and implementation. These assessments provide critical data to support effective decision-making, improve habitat conditions, and enhance ecosystem health at both local and regional scales.

  • Water Resources Engineering and Design

    Our expert water resources engineering and design services include stream restoration, bank stabilization, and the design of fish passage solutions and fishways to improve fisheries and stream health. We specialize in the installation of fish screens and water control structures to protect aquatic ecosystems. Our team also focuses on wetland enhancement and restoration, hydrologic analysis, and one- and two-dimensional hydraulic analysis to ensure effective flood management and habitat improvement. Additionally, we conduct scour analysis and design pond systems that enhance water quality and habitat function, providing sustainable solutions for aquatic ecosystems and water resource management.

  • Civil Engineering and Design

    RIVHAB provides a full range of civil engineering and design services, including Green Stormwater Infrastructure (GSI) to promote sustainable stormwater management. We design irrigation diversions, stormwater management facilities, and erosion control systems to protect water resources and enhance site development. Our team also specializes in AOP and culvert design, public works infrastructure, and decant facility design, ensuring functional and resilient systems. We offer storm drain design services and expertise in dredge discharge management and dredging consultation, addressing the unique needs of waterfront projects while improving water quality and site stability.

  • UAV/Drone Services

    We offer UAV and drone services, including LiDAR surface model creation, aerial imagery, and video capture for precise monitoring and habitat assessments. Our drones are used to evaluate hydrological functioning and conduct post-construction monitoring, providing valuable data for ongoing project success and environmental management.

  • Permitting and Construction Oversight

    Our full suite of construction services, includes the preparation of construction specifications, drawings, and bid documents. We assist with permitting applications, including Stream Alteration Permits, 401/404 Permit Applications, and NPDES permits, while providing contractor meetings and construction oversight. Our team is experienced in heavy equipment operation, in-stream construction, and dewatering/diversion of water plans. We implement erosion control and BMPs, conduct erosion control inspections, and ensure compliance with public works licensing and bonding requirements. Additionally, we offer design/build services, ensuring seamless project execution from design through construction.
