Hyaltus works with municipalities, conservation authorities, and First Nations communities to safeguard drinking water sources and manage water supplies for long-term resilience. Our work is grounded in a detailed understanding of how water moves through the landscape - from recharge zones to wellfields - and how changes in land use, climate, and demand affect both availability and vulnerability.
Our team specializes in the development and application of transient, three-dimensional geologic, hydrogeologic, and distributed hydrologic models. Integrating these domains allow us to capture the complex interactions between surface water and groundwater systems, providing a robust scientific foundation for implementing strategies to protect vital water supplies.
We work with communities and water managers to deliver:
Water supply planning, licensing and permitting, environmental assessments, and regulatory applications.
Source water protection studies, wellhead protection area (WHPA) delineation, aquifer vulnerability assessments.
Water quality and water quantity risk assessments.
Climate change and drought scenario testing to assess long-term supply resilience.
Assessment of groundwater–surface water interactions and integrated water budgeting studies.
