KOT ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING, INC. (KOT-ECI) facilitates community management for sustainable and future groundwater resources. We provide planning leadership to support you in the development of a groundwater management plan. We begin by reviewing available data and planning how to best define the groundwater system of interest. Maps are generated that define the geometry and other characteristics of the groundwater system. This information is used to formulate a groundwater management plan that reflects the groundwater system uniqueness. We include plans to safe guard the resource to make sure that the groundwater source is recharged and protected from contamination. Finally, we help the community develop a dialogue among the stakeholders and provide community relations support and informational training.
