Water ResourcesJones Edmunds offers comprehensive water resource services. Our focus mirrors the four primary Areas of Respon-sibility (AORs) of Florida’s water management districts:
• Water Supply• Water Quality Management• Flood Protection
• Natural Systems Management
• Geospatial Services
In addition to offering expertise in each of these areas, we focus on integrating the areas to bring value to our clients through innovative ideas and solutions. Underlying all of our water resources services is our GIS expertise. In addition to having a large number of highly skilled GIS professionals, we have some of the most GIS-proficient engineers and scientists in the state as part of our water resources project teams. This exceptional level of GIS-savvy ensures the most efficient and accurate use of data and technology.
The high-quality services we provide to our clients involve much more than just understanding how to use available technology. One of our greatest strengths lies in the ability of our multidisciplinary teams to work together effectively to develop approaches and solutions that help our clients achieve the most from their investments. Solutions to Flori-da’s increasingly complex water resources challenges require bringing together expertise in all AORs. Our integrated solutions bridge traditional regulatory and operational frameworks to provide the maximum benefits to our clients.
Improving Quality of Life
Improving Quality of Life — Many of our Water Resource projects provide us with a unique opportunity to rectify water quality and water supply concerns while at the same time providing protection of our natural systems. We are dedicated to improving our environment, and to protecting natural resources.
Water SupplyDeveloping integrated water resource solutions is an
important part of Florida’s future, and it is Jones Edmunds’
genuine concern for future generations that has motivated
us to take an active role in the development of sustainable
water supplies. We are committed to supporting our clients
with primary water supply services.
Water Supply Planning
Aquifer Storage and Recovery
Alternative Water Supplies
Ground and Surface Water Modeling
Water Use Permitting
Hydrogeology
Water Supply Protection and Conservation
Ground and Surface Water Quality
Water QualityWatershed management has become increasingly
important as the need to preserve and conserve
water and natural resources progresses. Jones
Edmunds can help you develop a plan to better
manage water bodies in your area and minimize/
mitigate impacts of pollutants on local natural
systems as well as on surface and underground
water sources.
Watershed Management
Water Quality Analysis
TMDL/Regulatory Support
Watershed Modeling
Natural Systems/Ecological Assessment
A Vital Role—Watershed management plans not only characterize water flows, natural systems, and constituents from various point and non-point sources surrounding the water bodies, but also help determine how to most cost-effectively decrease total maximum daily load (TMDL) discharge.
A Vision Realized — We understand the multitude of issues involved and can help direct an approach that balances protecting the natural resources, stakeholder goals, and cost-effectiveness.
Natural Systems Jones Edmunds is a leader in advocating for our
clients with regard to permitting and regulatory
issues. Our approach is based on our technical
and professional reputation with members of the
regulatory community—a sound reputation that we
have developed over the years.

Flood ProtectionAs Florida’s population continues to grow, development will
continue from the coast to the rural inland areas, as well
as from southern counties to more northern counties. With
this continued growth comes pressure for increased flood
protection, optimization of surface water networks, higher
levels of ecological protection, and new sources of water
supply.
Jones Edmunds has a talented team of modeling, design,
ecological, and construction management professionals with
experience in water control and spillway structure design to
assist with these challenges.
