Too much water can be every bit as devastating as insufficient water supplies, and Black & Veatch helps utilities and government effectively manage both extremes. Our more than 70 years of experience in stormwater drainage and flood control encompasses a wide range of climates and topographies, enabling us to efficiently help you develop policy, legislative ordinances, operating structures, capital financing, and user or impact fees. We've completed stormwater master plans, flood studies, and hydrologic and hydraulic modeling. In the United States, we also specialize in NPDES permitting procedures.

Our design staff has completed numerous projects involving pipe and inlet systems, culverts, channels, pumping stations, detention basins, and flood control facilities. We also design storm drainage systems as components of larger roadway or site development projects. In addition, Black & Veatch can assist in construction management, public participation, and program implementation.
