We perform the following services:
Hydrogeology:
The hydrogeological studies focus on analyzing the behavior of groundwater in the geological environment.
Some of the studies we do are:
- Infiltration tests
- Aquifer vulnerability analysis
- Well and springs protection areas
- Analysis of the area of influence of bodies of water
- Transit of pollutants
- Determination of the protection radius of a well
Potential natural hazards:
It is fundamental for the development of a project analyze potential natural threats that can affect a terrain, because it is considered the potential agents that can cause affectation.
Among these are:
- Geological faults
- Volcanic activity
- Hydrometeorological threats
- Stability of hillsides
- Geotectonic studies
Soil studies:
This technique allows us to determine the most important geotechnical parameters for the characterization of soils such as soil stratigraphy, cut resistance, relative density and support capacity.
Mining:
We do all the paperwork and studies necessary to obtain the permits for operation of Pits and public domain riverbed for the extraction of mining materials.
- Pits
- CDP Cause de Dominio Publico (Public Domain Riverbed)
- Mining
- DGM Directorate of Geology and Mines.
Environmental Impact Studies
The National Environmental Technical Secretariat (SETENA) is the state agency in charge of harmonizing the environmental impact with the productive processes in Costa Rica. Therefore there are a series of procedures that must be done prior to the development of a project.
Our professional team provides solutions for the preparation of studies to process environmental viabilities. The documents requested include the following forms:
D1:
D2:
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA):
Well drilling permits
Drilling permits:
All pre-drilling procedures are included in addition to hydrogeological studies in case it is necessary to analyze the interference with other wells, springs or bodies of water.
Water Concession:
Procedure in the Water Directorate of MINAE to request the use of water resources.
