When it comes to urban stormwater, we push the standard. Our multi-disciplinary approach brings architects, engineers, environmental professionals, and planners together to elevate solutions beyond what’s typical. Whether addressing flooding and stormwater challenges or providing feasibility assessments, ISG adopts a system-wide approach to identify priority areas, including storage and conveyance projects.

Our sustainable solutions address today’s challenges while keeping an eye on the future. We ensure accuracy using targeted technology tools including XPSWMM, HydroCAD, HEC-RAS, InfoWorksICM, and 2D system modeling of urban environments. Climate modeling for future conditions can help you stage capital improvement projects for long-term investment planning.

ISG champions balanced water solutions at the nexus of agriculture and ecology. Sophisticated hydrologic and hydraulic modeling will help you see current conditions and the impacts from planned projects. Embracing innovative technology solutions, including drones, LiDAR drones, and pipe crawlers, we accelerate the assessment of pipe and surface conditions while documenting changes from historical records. 

Collaborating with landowners, ISG designs drainage systems that provide agricultural lands with property drainage capacity while incorporating storage strategies to manage water volume and address precipitation variability throughout the growing season. With customized on-channel, off-channel, and edge-of-field best management practices (BMPs), we reduce your future maintenance costs while improving downstream water quality.

A leading watershed analysis, planning, and implementation firm, ISG facilitates complex watershed planning processes to generate consensus and prioritize realistic solutions that move the needle on improved water quality. We are well-qualified to provide you precise surface water monitoring, implementable water quality improvement plans with measurable goals, and comprehensive stakeholder engagement tailored to each project. 

Our expert environmental planners and scientists have experience in local, state, and federal policy development and understand the outcomes needed to secure funding. We combine our technical skills with a listen-first approach, to gain a full understanding of local issues and concerns, leading to plans that get results from day one.

Humble in our approach and established as a go-to leader in water resources management, ISG’s depth of expertise runs deep. Whether in large watersheds facing ecosystem challenges or in regions experiencing drought, we offer complete natural resource and ecological restoration solutions for lakes, streams, and wetlands. This resilience planning will bring lasting environmental impact to your region. Our comprehensive environmental and development services include permitting at local, state, and federal levels to ensure environmentally responsible development.

As environmental conditions change, ISG remains flexible and nimble in its management of natural resources to realize multi-benefit solutions. Our multi-disciplinary expertise, boots-on-the-ground experience, and trusted relationships with landowners, municipalities, and state agencies work in harmony to protect, conserve, and restore our valuable assets. Using a holistic lens, we consider the diverse ecological system of a resource to preserve its wild integrity while maximizing the social and economic benefits for communities.
