ECO Technologies services

Tailings ponds often reach capacity and threaten to disrupt both the local environment and your production. We help mitigate your immediate need for a new – and costly – infrastructure solution by evaluating your situation and providing options that will extend the life of your pond, saving you time, money, and additional environmental assessments.

Protecting access to marine waterways is crucial for environmental, cultural, recreational, and financial pursuits. Often these navigation channels become blocked by sand and silt churned up by severe weather. We offer a diverse range of dredging options, including side-casting, hydraulic suction, removal of sediment to a temporary containment cell, and other conventional methods which can quickly and safely restore accessibility.

Protecting our aquatic ecosystems must be a priority for all. Lakes, rivers, streams and marshes are irreplaceable filters for our water supply. These bodies of water support flora and fauna, including fish, fowl, and mammals. Contact with aquatic habitats is inevitable, as are impacts to the environment. You can depend on us to help you mitigate those interactions.

Infrastructure projects that occur on or near watercourses offer complicated operational challenges and risks. We offer customized operational support services, including trenching and positioning for underwater pipelines and cables, stabilizing river banks, assisting with inspection, demolition or repair of bridge structures, and more.

We use geotextile bags (filter bags) for passive sludge dewatering interventions. This option creates a low maintenance and cost effective solution that can remove more water from contaminated material and sediment that already exists in treatment ponds, tailings ponds, stormwater management ponds (SWMPs), and industrial lagoons – allowing you recoup valuable materials that may have been missed in previous operations.

We’ve perfected a unique solution to a very northern problem. Severe and often erratic winter conditions demand smart preventive measures. ECO Technologies specializes in creating custom strategies for communities that wish to mitigate the impact of spring thaw and the potential flooding that can occur due to ice jams.
