Ghirardelli Associates

Helping Protect Vital Resources for Safe, Clean Water, and Flood Protection

Water is vital to our economy and future, but increased demand, climate change, and aging infrastructure pose significant challenges. Ghirardelli Associates helps agencies plan and manage projects in flood protection, water and sewer line replacement, wetlands and fisheries protection, coastal erosion mitigation, and resource sustainability.

Flood Control

We help agencies across the state plan and construct flood control and channel projects. Some of our support includes construction management and inspection for flood control channels and retaining walls, erosion control structures, and facilities, and overall program management and planning.

Wetlands and Fisheries

Wetlands provide a critical buffer zone between water and land, and provide an important habitat for wildlife. Our team is experienced helping agencies to protect and rebuild wetlands to protect against erosion and to provide habitat for wildlife. Additionally, we support fisheries management projects by completing surveys and studies, and invasive species removal.

Coastal Protection

Not just to protect the environment and wildlife habitat but also to reduce erosion and protect vital infrastructure. The team at Ghirardelli Associates is experienced in helping agencies complete erosion control projects along the coast and within ports and harbors. Whether it is a ferry terminal, coastal trail, or erosion control structure, our staff has the expertise to support your project.
