Protecting our environment from the elements. From flood control to stream restoration, our engineers are experts in the field of surface water management. A comprehensive, experienced approach to projects like basin studies, geomorphic assessment, stormwater and drainage engineering, hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, permitting, fish passage, aquatic habitat rehabilitation, and CIP evaluation ensure cost-effective, efficient results for both public and private projects.

On numerous project sites ranging from urban to natural environments, often in environmentally critical areas, PACE surface water engineers have utilized the challenge presented by stormwater to create valuable and aesthetic site amenities. We take a creative approach to integrating engineering with the environment, including green strategies such as rainwater harvesting, permeable pavements and other low-impact development approaches.

To help meet the needs of both public and private clients, our surface water team has the advantage of a practical, real-world perspective, built from our wide range of experience including working within and for government agencies. This unique insight into the government’s regulatory and environmental concerns can help our clients save time and money on even the most sensitive projects.
