Drainage Basin Analysis and Groundwater Study
Bowman completed a drainage basin analysis and groundwater study to evaluate the impact mining would have on the regional watershed within the Adirondack Mountains.

Bowman project hydrogeologists evaluated the deepening of a quarry that was located immediately adjacent to the Hudson River with a floor 200-ft below the river. A field investigation was developed, and an analysis was performed to evaluate the potential to deepen the quarry by an additional 100-ft.
Bowman investigated the groundwater and surface water relationships for a proposed mining site, which included an upland wetland system and surface drainage within the drainage basin.
Bowman prepared a groundwater work plan and implemented a groundwater investigation. The purpose of the investigation was to address the karstic terrain surrounding the 300-acre cement quarry.
Bowman geologists were responsible for the implementation of a groundwater investigation relative to a proposed quarry deepening. The work consisted of drilling oversight and logging of approximately 1,000 LF of bedrock borings, installation of bedrock piezometers, stream gauging, photolineament analysis, aquifer testing, and geologic mapping.
Bowman evaluated visual impacts to Viewshed for Hooper Garnet Mine Expansion. A digital terrain model was used to create expansion footprint. Topographic mapping was used to predict visual impacts. Mitigation measures and reclamation planning were developed to reduce visual impacts to the community.
Bowman provided planning, engineering, surveying, and environmental consulting services for development of the 2,800 LF of stream valley trail within the surrounding Burke Station Park. Development included design of the eight-ft. wide multipurpose trail, pedestrian bridge crossing, culverts and associated improvements.
This project consists of a four-story, 178-unit, mixed-income apartment complex located in the Eckington area of Washington, DC on a site of approximately 1.6 acres. The historic convent building on the site was moved and is incorporated into the apartment building design, including approximately six rental units, and was built in accordance with historic preservation guidelines.
As part of the 2.5 million sq. ft. redevelopment project known as Arbor Row, located within the heart of the new Tyson Urban Center, Bowman provided full service engineering, environmental, surveying and construction administration services for the first two synthetic turf fields in Tysons, VA.
As part of the effort to replace the military’s inventory of obsolete and inadequate housing with safe, comfortable homes for military families, JB Andrews hopes to rehabilitate existing units and provide new units, producing high quality housing for military families.
