Construction site drainage is a necessary part of nearly every construction project. Each site presents unique challenges, requiring a customized approach based on factors such as water levels, soil permeability, pumping distance, and contaminant removal needs. Some locations may require continuous dewatering if the water table is higher than the excavation depth. On these sites, wellpoint pumps and piping can lower the water level, creating a dry and safe environment for excavation. After removal, the pumped water often needs treatment before discharge to land, surface water, or stormwater inlets.
