Continuously Monitor Water Quality in Real-Time

The frequency of water quality monitoring depends on the site conditions and local regulations:

• Continuous monitoring may be required for sites with significant runoff water or based in a sensitive area, such as near a water body.
• Regular water sampling may be the preferred option, where samples are taken at least once a week, especially during active construction phases when runoff is most likely to occur.
• Reactive monitoring, such as after a rainstorm, to check for any surge in pollutants or sediment.
• Some sites may monitor only when there’s visible pollution, or if there’s an incident or spill.

Water pollution on construction sites can come from several sources, including:

• Soil erosion from disturbed areas can lead to sediment-laden runoff that affects nearby rivers, lakes, or wetlands.
• Fuel, oils, paints, solvents, and concrete washout water can contaminate surface water if not properly managed.
• Heavy rains can wash pollutants into nearby water sources if there are no effective drainage or sediment control measures in place.
• Water used for cleaning construction equipment can contain pollutants like oil and grease.

Water quality monitoring on construction sites is essential for several reasons, including:

• Construction activities can lead to pollutants (e.g. oils, chemicals, sediment) entering nearby water bodies, which can harm local ecosystems.
• Many projects have requirements to monitor and manage water runoff to meet environmental regulations and avoid fines.
  Polluted water can contaminate drinking water sources and affect public health, especially if the site is near residential or agricultural areas.
• Construction sites often disturb soil, leading to sediment runoff. Monitoring helps ensure sediment levels are within acceptable limits to prevent waterway contamination.

Yes, alongside monitoring, we can advise on effective water treatment options and mitigation strategies to help you maintain safe and compliant water quality levels.

Yes, we take care of positioning the probes, configuring the system and ensuring everything is calibrated correctly, so you receive accurate and reliable water quality data from the start.

Yes, we can set up automated email or SMS alerts that are triggered when readings fall outside your pre-defined thresholds, allowing you to act quickly to prevent environmental impact.

Our monitor can record key indicators such as turbidity, suspended solids, pH, temperature and other water quality metrics that may be affected by site activity or discharge.

Yes, Our monitoring and reporting tools provide clear evidence that you are meeting environmental and discharge standards, supporting compliance with regulators and local authorities.

Our monitoring solution supports construction, infrastructure, remediation, environmental management and any project where site runoff or discharge may affect nearby natural water bodies.

All live readings and historical data are available via our cloud-based portal, making it easy to analyse results, track changes over time and generate reports.
