Port Salut Water Quality & Availability Study
A coastal region of southern Haiti was being considered for tourism development but first needed a solid understanding on the water quality and terrain limitations. Our team conducted field reconnaissance and gathered data on land use, population, precipitation, evapotranspiration, geology, and water use. While the rugged topography presented challenges, we coordinated with local leaders on how to best navigate the limited roadway infrastructure. We used multiple techniques to assess regional water availability and quality, performed and recorded in situ as well as extensive laboratory testing of ions, anions, and metals. A final report assembled all collected data, results, and recommendations so that our client could make informed decisions.
