Permits & Standards
Our clients work daily to understand and comply with a complex array of water quality regulations. LimnoTech understands the complexities and challenges associated with the implementation of Clean Water Act (CWA) requirements enforced at the national and state levels. We support our clients as they shape the way permits and standards are implemented, and we have helped them identify cost-effective, yet robust, compliance solutions that are always based on a foundation of sound science and reasoning.

LimnoTech’s clients are charged with safeguarding our nation’s waters. Municipalities, industries, public utilities, airports, power generators, regulatory agencies, and others share common goals of restoring and protecting recreational and aquatic life uses; protecting drinking water supplies and public health; and controlling wastewater, stormwater, cooling water, and sewer discharges. To achieve these goals, all of these organizations are faced with an ever-changing landscape of regulations related to water quality standards, intake or discharge permits, designation of impaired waters, and TMDLs.
Our clients require expert advice and support. Since our founding, LimnoTech has been a national leader in developing regulatory compliance strategies based on sound science and an in-depth understanding of the regulations. With this knowledge and our solid reputation and relationships with both regulated parties and regulatory agencies, we work cooperatively with both sides to find solutions that benefit all parties and the water resources they share. When needed, our world-class expertise allows us to support our clients in litigation, helping them resolve disputes and focus their efforts on the things that matter most.
