RIZZO geologists and hydrogeologists participate in a wide range of projects within RIZZO’s Services.  Some project types include: Nuclear Power Plant Siting Subsurface Investigations, Drilling and Piezometer Installation, Geophysical Testing Oversight for Seismic Hazard Analysis, Geologic Mapping for Foundation Investigation in Hydroelectric Dam Design and Construction, Geotechnical Investigations for Gas Turbine Plants, hydraulic testing of geologic materials, groundwater system characterization and investigations, and Water Quality Sampling.  This gives RIZZO personnel the necessary experience to successfully investigate and analyze any site.

All of RIZZO’s geologists and hydrogeologists utilize cutting edge borehole logging equipment including our newest acquisition of handheld digital computers (PDA) for quick, efficient, and accurate logging with P-Log field data collection software.
