A successful water supply project begins with a strong understanding of the available resource. IGI provides hydrogeologic feasibility studies to support a wide range of applications, including rural rezoning and subdivision development, municipal and domestic water supply, and irrigation projects.

Our assessments evaluate aquifer characteristics, local geology, existing groundwater data, and water quality to determine the viability of groundwater as a long-term supply. Drawing on extensive drilling and field experience throughout British Columbia, we provide practical, science-based recommendations to support sustainable, cost-effective, and regulatory-compliant groundwater development.

Groundwater supply development and testing are core to IGI’s practice. We work closely with qualified drilling contractors and pump installers throughout British Columbia to deliver reliable, well-designed water supply systems.

Our services include well siting, drilling oversight, well design, pumping test design and execution, and water quality sampling and analysis. We support projects ranging from private domestic wells to high-capacity systems for municipal, irrigation, and industrial applications.

All work is carried out in accordance with applicable provincial regulations, including the Water Sustainability Act, Groundwater Protection Regulation, and Health Hazard Regulation.

Well Rehabilitation services are essential for restoring the efficiency of aging or underperforming wells. We work closely with experienced contractors to clean, restore, and optimize wells to extend their operational lifespan and improve water yield, ensuring that your well remains reliable and effective for years to come.

Source Water Assessment and Protection Plans are essential for safeguarding drinking water supplies from potential contaminants. Our expert team conducts comprehensive assessments to identify vulnerabilities in surface and groundwater sources, followed by tailored protection strategies that include land use planning, best management practices, and stakeholder collaboration. By partnering with us, municipalities and utilities can ensure compliance with regulatory standards while promoting sustainable water quality for communities.

Buying a house with a well? Before you make a purchase, ensure that water sources meet health and safety standards. Whether you are buying or selling property, we provide thorough water testing to determine whether the well water is potable, and make recommendation on potential treatment options.

Under the 2016 Water Sustainability Act, all non domestic groundwater use requires a water license. Our team can help you obtain the necessary water rights and permits. From application assistance to compliance monitoring, we ensure your projects adhere to provincial regulations and that your water resources are properly managed.

IGI has extensive experience overseeing environmental drilling operations, designing monitoring wells, and conducting precise sampling to evaluate groundwater quality. Our team excels in assessing sites impacted by agricultural land use, as well as managing landfill monitoring programs.
