Aquatic environments provide essential social, economic and environmental services that are central to the well-being and development of all communities.
At GHD, our aquatic scientists provide leadership on the investigation and management of marine and freshwaters, to help our clients achieve better ecological, resource efficiency and human health outcomes.
Our scientists are leaders in four main areas:
- Consumptive and human water use - finding ways to deliver safe water for urban communities, recreation and agricultural purposes
- Freshwater ecosystems - specialising in the chemistry and ecology of rivers, streams, lakes and wetland environments (water and sediment)
- Marine ecosystems - delivering regulatory permitting and environmental monitoring programs for coastal and offshore development projects
- Waterway restoration - designing and creating healthy, functioning waterway environments
Aquatic environments are seldom considered in isolation. Our aquatic scientists collaborate with our clients and other disciplines to contribute high quality inputs to all stages of the project lifecycle, including planning and permitting, design and implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Together with our clients, we provide lasting benefits to the communities in which we live and work.

The City of Oswego's West Side Sewer Separation project is a major undertaking for us, impacting a large portion of our city for an extended period of time. As we execute this massive project, it has been a pleasure to work with GHD as they've been extremely responsive, timely, responsible and accountable. Partnering with GHD on this project has made the entire process run on time and with ease. We look forward to continuing our work.
