Water
Scott Wilson's Water group provides a range of services across
the entire water cycle to support development and environmental
improvement. Our services include water resources, water
supply and treatment, wastewater, flood risk management and coastal
engineering. Client-focused products range from strategic
plans through to specific solutions at local level. Clients include
not only organisations which directly manage water - such as water
utility companies and governmental water authorities - but also
environmental regulators, contractors, infrastructure owners,
planning authorities and developers. Because of this our
project portfolio includes major projects such as river basin
management planning in Iran, flood relief channels in Angola,
protection of artificial islands in Bahrain and Dubai, and water
and wastewater treatment plants throughout the UK.
Water is at the forefront of many of the challenging issues that
face the modern world - climate change, scarcity of resources,
industrialisation, population growth and environmental
standards. Scott Wilson is actively engaged in providing
solutions to problems such as managing scarce water resources, or
managing development so that water infrastructure needs are taken
into account and planned for. Allowance for climate change is
built into our solutions for managing flood risk or providing water
to adequate volumes and quality. Our projects take account of
the latest developments in environmental best practice.
Scott Wilson operates worldwide providing a water service that
is fully integrated with other Scott Wilson services. By
integrating our Water group with Scott Wilson's multidisciplinary
service, we are able to provide solutions to all types of water
scenarios.

Groundwater Investigations
In 2005, Southern Water commissioned
Scott Wilson to carry out groundwater investigations at numerous
wastewater treatment works. Under the AMP4 programme,
Southern Water is carrying out a review of the treated wastewater
disposal at twenty Wastewater Treatment Works (WTW) to determine
their impact on groundwater.
