"Holistic Environmental Solutions for a Changing World"
Together, we will change the world's practice of surface water management.
There's much to see here. So, take your time and look around. We challenge established surfacewater management methodologies by promoting new & innovative solutions using LIDGI-low impact development green infrastructure products to improve water quality, mitigate flooding, and increase public safety.
Formally EGRP, the GEPS® system was invented by EXLTERRA®, a revolutionary subterranean soil management system installed in the vadose zone to enhance water movement. Augmented permeability offers new design concepts to improve drainage, mitigate flooding, recharge groundwater, stabilizes soils and more.
Soil nutrient and trace element management system from a molecular approach by EXLTERRA®. Its design uses gas chambers to pull nutrients and trace elements from around itself sending them to the roots in higher depleted soils promoting growth by restarting the natural cycle.
Chemical and radioactive soil decontamination. EXLTERRA NSPS® is specifically designed to redirect the high-velocity particles to substantially accelerate the decay rate of contaminants in the upper soil layers below the surface and in the low-growing vegetation above the ground surface.
Automated watershed modeling in real time! The AOS has emergency management logic to adjust for intensity reducing the peak flow rate up to 50% to mitigate flooding. We can now control the "timing of the peak" to lower the BFE (base flood elevation) in existing FEMA flood hazard areas through active management.
An instant stabilization system leading the market in erosion control. Just roll it out and pin in place. Reduce costly damage to site work during construction and from water shed scouring caused during rain events, holds seed in place during germination, and has a better shear strength than riprap.
A superior solution featuring a design duality to capture stormwater runoff and immediately store volume within its chamber. Also, PAVEDRAIN® heated pavers design provide safe passage in winter months from snow and ice.
The superior solution to water quality, waste water treatment and erosion control. Biological treatment takes place below the water in a floating system using hydroponics, bioremediation, and phytoremediation to uptake harmful nutrients and pollution.
A scalable and modular stormwater underdrain system with storage and pollutant removal efficiency of 80% TSS, 60% TP, and 48% TN. The FocalPoint system gives designers maximum flexibility in meeting water quality and volume storage requirements.
Fabco® filters offer effective treatment of stormwater while maintaining flow rates in terms of sediments, debris, heavy metals, hydrocarbons/toxic chemicals, pathogens/bacteria and nutrient removals allowing for design performance fine tuning.
Drainage solutions for problematic surface water, runoff reduction strategies, mitigating pollution streams, mitigate flooding, mitigate mosquito habitat, recharge ground water, soil stabilization, applications for existing infrastructure, maintenance functions, reduce peak flows, consulting, and designs to bring current innovative technology and green infrastructure benefits to the forefront of historical challenges. Innovative technologies clearly has many applications and offers a pathway for aging infrastructure, drainage, conveyance, water quality, contaminated soils, groundwater recharge, and other surfacewater challenges.
Our current practice of water management has been the same for over 4000 years. A paradigm shift to surface water management has emerged. Soil management challenges current designs and offers new possibilities within the engineering community. In current design patterns we, "convey" water or, "put water somewhere". Now, considering the innovative stormwater technologies available, we must begin to consider new ideas, new methods and designs to reduce peak flows for public safety. The economic benefits to the public works/civil engineering sector, land use, and mitigated environmental impacts is exponential.
Emerging technologies for stormwater, erosion, and sedimentation control industry have grown to a CAGR of 7.79% and predicted to reach USD8434.23 million by 2026. In the past 10 years, global warming and climate change will push the industry to invent and rethink new ideas and new design elements for water management. These innovative products will benefit all of us as nothing is more paramount than public safety. For example, Exlterra's GEPS system offers a simple yet easy to install infrastructure to localize water management. Many industries can now take advantage of this proven science of soils management to reduce runoff and infiltrate surfacewater where it lands; infiltrate don't convey, reducing environmental impacts and improving land management. Also, the AOS -Automated Outlet Structure, an automated weir that has passive and active controls to dewater during peak events to mitigate flooding thereby reducing peak flows by up to 50%. Our buildings are automated, why not automate surfacewater?
Augmented permeability science is a technology that allows for superior water movement and distribution in the vadose zone to access previously unreachable areas within the soil matrix for storage. With that concept, infrastructure designs must immediately embrace the augmented permeability industry as water is our most precious resource. Emerging technologies and other peak flow design reduction strategies will benefit aging infrastructure and can reverse the footprint of urban sprawl on undersized gray infrastructure systems while combating water sacristy across the World.
We can predict urban sprawl and the resulting pollution stream based on historical models, Urban Hydrology 2.0 attempts to reverse the effects of urbanization on runoff. This concept has generational benefits for our environment by utilizing better urban stormwater management that promotes resilience while mitigating flooding-mosquitos-TN & TP and other point and non source point pollution streams.
A shift from the 4000 year old water management designs we commonly use today must begin. The idea of reducing peak flows by volume reduction methods using innovative products LID/GI is a concept in its infancy. Our water crisis is real- 80% of the World is under a water security threat. Negative impacts to natural resources will continue as the consequences of current design are predictable. A shift begins today. New concepts and strategies to reduce stormwater impacts with emerging technologies is a proven solution to many water problems found in the civil and public works industries.
Water is life.
The consequences of runoff to surface water has a destiny- eutrophication. Some communities are adopting Land Development Ordinances and Codes requiring, "zero runoff' and other methods for better water management. Recognizing the benefits of mitigating urban impacts, these efforts will champion other designs with improved pollution reductions, groundwater recharge, mitigated flooding, health, long term environment benefits and public safety. We should all manage our, "share" of water.
It's time for a change.
The GEPS system is an engineered array of GEPS units. The system is designed to eliminate standing water and protect underground structures from water by balancing soil moisture, allowing water to travel through the soil as needed.
GEPS infiltrates water faster, healing saturated and muddy soils. It also protects leaking basements and keeps underground installations dry.
The GEPS uses fundamental physical principles to restore and optimize rates of water infiltration through the soil. Soil moisture can be managed both vertically and horizontally without the need of a water pump, heavy excavation, or continuous maintenance.
GEPS can function independently or in conjunction with established drainage systems to improve overall drainage performance, eliminate standing water, protect underground structures, or manage soil moisture.
GEPS® cap is a proprietary design and integral part of Exlterra patented system.
Urban foresters, Landscapers, Fruit Producers, Residential uses for any types of tree can increase the vitality, yield, quality of fruits, and tree health.
NEPS Trees: Week 17 of study at Palmer Park Detroit, Michigan
NEPS was created with the needs of trees in mind – assisting trees reach crucial nutrients that would have previously been isolated in untapped soil layers.
Made from environmentally safe polyethylene, NEPS increases the release of highly mobile nutrients in soil and operate independent of soil type, elevation, or climate.
Non-NEPS Trees: Week 17 of study at Palmer Park Detroit, Michigan
NEPS functions to allow trees to access deeper nutrients that were previously inaccessible due to impervious soil layers or compacted soil.
Our system is installed and buried vertically into the soil around a targeted tree with minimal disruption to the topsoil. There is no maintenance required for our system as it works underground in combination with the tree roots.
NSPS® is the first technology in the World to Neutralize Radioactivity at Chernobyl by 47%. NSPS is an underground, natural particle accelerator.
HOW EXLTERRA NSPS® WORKS: COLLIDING POSITRONS WITH THE NUCLEI OF RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPES
EXLTERRA NSPS® therefore acts as a natural particle accelerator—for lack of better word—creating space and collecting positrons in the soil and circumventing them into a narrow energy tube in its core. This accumulation of energy is then accelerated and funneled towards the cap of EXLTERRA NSPS® polys (similar to an upsidedown tornado vortex) and released through the sides of the cap. Once released, the accumulated kinetic energy of positrons gets closer to the EXLTERRA boosters, another critical part of system. The EXLTERRA boosters, installed three feet away from each EXLTERRA NSPS® poly—two facing North at 120° and one facing South, create a 360° radius around EXLTERRA NSPS®. These boosters help to loosen the soil and act as a key network to collect and redirect the positron energy towards the ground surface. Once the positron kinetic energy is harnessed and redirected, an energy beam of positrons collides with the nuclei of the radioactive isotope, breaking it down into its original forms of uranium and plutonium.
The energy is released and particles rebind in their original form. EXLTERRA boosters also decrease the velocity of the accelerated positrons to allow for a successful decay of the surface radioactive isotope. At the end of this accelerated natural process, the magnetic field naturally reabsorbs, binds, and directs this energy as it has always done in nature. The space opened by EXLTERRA NSPS® is designed to act as natural space for energy to be drawn to; positrons detect this natural space and funnel their energy through the openings on the side of EXLTERRA NSPS® polys, where it is then accelerated towards the cap. Just like with PET scans in hospitals, positrons search for irregularities or atomsized spaces to enter. Once a positron is in one of the chambers of an EXLTERRA poly, it naturally follows the path of least resistance and funnels its energy up and out—not through the plastic.
Mimic predevelopment hydrologic flows with post development controlled release to reduce downstream and development impacts.
Control surface flows to remove development and residential communities from existing FEMA flood mapping areas by lowering BFE to mitigate flooding.
AOS mimics the natural runoff of an actual storm by utilizing real time data to control flows reducing stormwater ponds footprint.
"The timing of the peak is just as important as the peak itself," Jon Rasmussen, inventor of the AOS. With the AOS, we can now control the timing of the peak.
Stabilize site work to reduce erosion and reconstruction costs.
ShearForce is providing a new solution to challenging sites and immediate stabilization.
ShearForce 12 is fortified by a base mat and is used in areas of high velocity flows and discharge.
The PaveDrain® Difference
The PaveDrain System is a Permeable Articulating Concrete Block (P-ACB) that creates a performance pavement that integrates the patented arched reservoir to maximize on site stormwater capacity.
This improves the typical storm hydrograph and increases environmental performance while reducing stormwater infrastructure costs. The PaveDrain system can be designed in a variety of configurations customized for specific applications and installed very quickly with conventional construction equipment.
The PaveDrain System allows for a more natural (vertical) infiltration path, recharging local groundwater and reducing first flush pollutants. By reducing a typical storm hydrograph while also filtering out suspended sediments this combination of Best Management Practices (BMP's) illustrate stellar life-cycle cost savings, clearly making the PaveDrain System a superior choice for effective stormwater management.
Over 10,000 islands deployed World wide. The superior water quality solution.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Microbes and bacteria attach to the roots, the microscopic root hairs of the plants and on the fibers of the matrix where they secrete a sticky film called biofilm. This is where total suspended solids (TSS) are either trapped or settle.
The microbes and bacteria also digest the organic matter and nutrients, including biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), nitrogen and phosphorus through a process called bioremediation.
Floating Treatment Wetlands Are Effective For:
• Anaerobic Digestion
• Nitrification Processes
• De-nitrification and Polishing
• Removal of Total Suspended Solids (TSS)
• Reduction in Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD)
• Reduction in Fecal Coliforms
• Reduction in Phosphorus
• Reduction in Turbidity
The Fabco® StormScreen ISB is a retrofit filter insert designed for installation into new and existing storm drain inlets or catch basin inserts. It is a new addition to the industry leading line of catch basin insert products manufactured by Fabco.
The design traps sediment and debris, all while allowing runoff water to pass through the filter and exit through the storm drain system. The Screenbox can be used for many typical applications, such as parking lots, commercial properties, roadway surfaces as well as stormwater “hot spots,” such as transportation centers, vehicle maintenance facilities, gas stations/fueling locations and industrial applications.
The StormScreen ISB frame is manufactured from high strength 5000 series aluminum to resist cracking, abrasion, and to survive severe temperature swings. The StormScreen ISB also includes quality stainless steel wire screens and an adjustable mounting system that allows you to extend or contract the support flanges to adapt to the actual site conditions.
When stormwater enters the Fabco StormScreen ISB, it passes through and over an optional oil boom that is placed around the top perimeter of the box. After this initial pretreatment, the water flows down through the protected bypass hood into the lower filtration chamber.
As the water drops down into the chamber and is filtered through the screens, the sediment and debris collected is stored in a dry state. This reduces potential septic conditions while minimizing the material weight that must be removed during clean outs – saving space and disposal costs.
After many storm events, the collected debris can weigh up to several hundreds of pounds. Clean outs can be done manually by lifting the entire unit from the drain and dumping or more rapidly by using a commercial vacuum truck.
FocalPoint High-Performance Modular Biofiltration System (HPMBS) is a scalable biofiltration system which combines the efficiency of high flow rate engineered soils with the durability and modularity of a highly pervious expandable underdrain/storage/infiltration system. The modular FocalPoint HPMBS is a complete, integrated system with a demanding specification that insures functionality, performance and maintainability. With rigorous quality assurance standards and post-construction in-situ performance verification, FocalPoint HPMBS provides guaranteed performance.
The FocalPoint’s modular underdrain, unlike a traditional perforated pipe, not only supports the flow rate of the media, but can be expanded beyond the footprint of the media bed to provide unlimited underground detention, infiltration and/or storage for water reuse/infiltration.
FocalPoint HPMBS gives designers maximum flexibility in meeting both water quality and volume requirements.
The system can be used in combination with traditional LID BMPs such as grassy swales and vegetated depressions. It enables implementation of green streets using urban sidewalk planters; which because of the small footprint can support designs with large trees. These systems are also used for downspout planters, replacing underground treatment systems and are an easy retrofit for failed traditional bioretention systems. FocalPoint provides unlimited application opportunities for new construction and redevelopment.
