Catchment Management

Catchment Management can help to reduce the impact of flooding to our towns, cities, key infrastructure and environmentally sensitive areas. It requires a combined consideration of land and water management based upon our river catchments and our coastal areas as the natural, geographical management unit.

At RPS, we support central and local government agencies and private clients across the world in catchment management. We formulate policy, deliver national and catchment scale strategies, execute feasibility studies, deliver project appraisals and site-specific flood risk assessments and design solutions.

Coastal and Estuaries

Mitigating against Coastal related flooding and extreme weather events is vital to prevent threats to life, and untold billions in damage and lost productivity. At RPS, we have deep expertise in inspecting coastal structures and assessing their conditions and maintaining their integrity. We conduct physical and computational modelling, and engage with physical coastal processes (hydrodynamic, wave transformation, sediment transport, coastal evolution, harbour disturbance) and water quality modelling.

We assess the environmental impacts of coastal structures and outfall siting and dispersion through engineering design criteria and analysis.
