AQUALIS
Stormwater Management for Municipalities
From protecting public safety to meeting strict environmental regulations, municipalities face complex stormwater management challenges.
With more than 20 years of industry expertise, AQUALIS combines nationwide reach and localized stormwater management knowledge. We help municipalities maintain permits, protect public assets and implement sustainable practices that align with long-term community goals. Our services protect infrastructure and ensure compliance with evolving federal and state requirements.
Stormwater Services We Offer for the Public Sector
AQUALIS partners with municipalities for comprehensive stormwater management. Backed by decades of regulatory experience, our services are designed to manage runoff, prevent flooding and safeguard critical infrastructure.
Routine inspections help municipalities identify risks before they become costly emergencies. Our inspection process includes evaluating aboveground and underground assets, drainage systems and retention ponds. Detailed reports outline compliance gaps and provide actionable recommendations for maintenance or repair.
When infrastructure is damaged or failing, prompt repair is essential to minimize flooding, erosion and public safety hazards. AQUALIS offers targeted repair services for storm drains, culverts, detention basins and other critical assets. Our team leverages advanced repair techniques while minimizing disruption to public areas.
Ongoing maintenance is one of the most effective ways for municipalities to stay compliant and prevent infrastructure failures. AQUALIS provides tailored maintenance programs that keep drainage infrastructure performing as designed.
Our teams perform routine cleaning, debris removal and vegetation control to reduce blockages and extend the life of municipal assets. We also manage seasonal maintenance, ensuring your systems are prepared for heavy rainfall or snowmelt. With consistent upkeep, cities and counties can reduce emergency repair costs while demonstrating compliance with state and federal requirements.
When sinkholes threaten public safety, AQUALIS provides professional sinkhole repair services for municipal properties, including parks, parking lots and roadways.
Our team uses specialized equipment to evaluate subsurface conditions and restore structural integrity. Whether the cause is failing stormwater infrastructure, erosion or collapsed piping, we deliver safe and lasting repairs that protect both the community and municipal investments.
Municipalities are responsible for monitoring the discharge from stormwater systems to ensure permit compliance. AQUALIS offers discharge monitoring services that track water quality and pollutant levels, providing detailed reporting to meet permit requirements.
Our specialists use advanced sampling methods and lab testing to identify risks and recommend solutions. This proactive approach helps municipalities avoid violations while protecting local waterways and ecosystems.
Storm drains, catch basins and sewer systems require heavy-duty cleaning solutions to remain operational. AQUALIS offers vactor services that remove sediment and debris from stormwater and wastewater infrastructure.
By keeping these systems clear, municipalities can reduce the risk of non-compliance with EPA standards. Vactor services are also essential before major storm events, when debris buildup can overwhelm public drainage systems.

Municipal Case Studies
Environmental Services for Cities & Municipalities
Municipalities must comply with state and EPA regulations by adopting sustainable water management practices. AQUALIS helps cities meet these requirements by developing and managing MS4 (Municipal Separate Sewer System) Permits, NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) Permits, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) and Operations & Maintenance Agreements (O&Ms).
These strategies provide municipal facilities with clear inspection schedules and long-term management protocols designed to reduce the risks of flooding, erosion and pollution. In doing so, municipalities meet regulatory requirements while safeguarding their communities.
AQUALIS also integrates green infrastructure into stormwater management. From rain gardens and bioswales to native landscaping, these solutions enhance water quality, filter pollutants and improve public spaces. By pairing sustainable design with compliance-focused practices, we help cities protect vital resources and plan responsibly for the future.
Wastewater Services for the Public Sector
Unlike stormwater, wastewater originates inside a property and requires specialized treatment and oversight to remain safe and compliant.
AQUALIS provides comprehensive wastewater management services to help municipalities remain compliant with federal, state and local regulations. Our expertise includes lift station engineering design, system monitoring and preventative maintenance to ensure reliable performance.
For long-term compliance, we also offer vactor services to clean and maintain wastewater assets. These services reduce the risk of costly repairs, extend system life and protect public health.

Parking Lot Flooding & Drainage Management
Municipal parking lots and other paved areas are especially vulnerable to flooding caused by drainage failures. Standing water not only creates safety hazards but also disrupts daily operations and damages public infrastructure.
AQUALIS helps municipalities address these challenges with specialized flooding and drainage management services. Our team identifies the root causes of flooding, whether clogged drains, deteriorating pipes or compromised grading and implements effective solutions that restore safety and accessibility.
Through regular inspections and proactive maintenance, we also help prevent recurring issues, saving municipalities time and money.
