The Project

EGGI was selected by the Augusta County Service Authority (ACSA), after a competitive qualification review of over 15 firms, to investigate the potential to develop additional groundwater resources and to evaluate the protectability of new sources of water supply.  This project included Countywide groundwater investigations, geophysical investigations, exploratory test well drilling and testing, and the implementation of detailed groundwater protection programs.

Status/Results:

EGGI’s groundwater investigation throughout the County has resulted in the development of in excess of 4,000,000 gallons per day (gpd) (4+ mgd).  The water quality is excellent and meets all EPA Primary and Secondary Drinking Water Standards.  The development of this water supply has substantially improved the overall water supply system capacity for meeting the Augusta County Service Authority's overall water supply needs.
