NPE can deliver an extensive water quality monitoring program with services including laboratory sampling, field monitoring, and compliance reporting
Monitoring of the water treatment system is completed on several levels. The operational systems can be controlled remotely using remote connectivity software, which enables functions such as pH adjustment, turning the system on and off, and implementing incremental operational adjustments. The MRMs and CDUs have water and pH level alarms and a flow rate alarm system that monitors any overflows or emergencies such as power outages. Our systems are monitored 24/7, with teams rotated through a rostered call-out schedule which allows emergencies to be identified and attended to immediately.
NPE has the ability and authority to provide environmental compliance reports as required. This ensures our clients are constantly across the performance of the water treatment system and the alliance with their legislative deliverables. Depending on the client’s requirements, data such as discharge rates, drawdown rates, chemical usage, pre and post-water test results, and baseline monitoring can be collected by our team. Information collected is extrapolated into an in-house reporting system and submitted to the client. A web-based geotechnical instrumentation monitoring system that monitors drawdown requirements and discharge rates is also used as required.
Environmental Monitoring
The program is designed to give the client the confidence to make informed decisions based on collected analytical data. Most importantly, the results offer the client documented evidence of environmental compliance. Testing is done on-site, and samples are sent to NATA-certified laboratories for third-party confirmatory testing and reporting.
