HYDROTECHNICAL GEOHAZARD REMEDIATION

FIRMA stabilized a high-risk riverbank to protect two buried pipelines vulnerable to erosion during extreme flood events. The team installed 3,500 m³ of Class 2 riprap, completed river isolation and pump-around operations, removed beaver dams, and supported fish-salvage activities — all executed under stringent environmental controls.

The impact

Long-term protection for critical underground pipelines in a sensitive hydrotechnical zone.

Challenges overcome

Live-water isolation, strict environmental oversight, and large-scale riprap placement — all completed within narrow seasonal windows.

Results

A fortified, stable riverbank engineered to withstand severe flood conditions and reduce long-term geohazard risks.

The project demonstrated the value of disciplined environmental coordination when safeguarding both infrastructure and ecosystems.
