If you're here to see some first rate IDDE Reconnaissance and textbook stormwater related environmental catastrophes, you're in the right place.  Be patient with some of the videos.  Many of these sites take a solid hike to get to and we always begin filming, where we first encounter symptoms.  The epicenters are rarely what you'd expect and always worth the wait.   

Results of Inadequate Downstream Investigation

Ephemeral Creek overloaded and eroded by overdeveloped MS4 basin

 Not understanding the real condition of the MS4 system your project is tying into, can create even bigger issues.  ..... like tying your new project into a system that is already overtaxed and blowing out into a massive gully.

Blown Outfall creates massive silt fan and impacts wetlands, basins, and stream.

Further downstream investigation before a number of new upland projects on this system, would have prevented impacts like this.

Outfall Reconnaissance turns up the worst environmental design fails.

 Most of the mistakes we find are easily avoided! 

MS4 Overdevelopment and Overload

 Another undersized outfall in an outdated MS4 resulting in another massive gully and impaired Wetlands and Waters of the State.
