  6. Perform geoscience analyses to support geo-environmental projects such as sediment fate assessments, transport of sediments of concern and resuspension assessments.
  7. Perform geoscience analyses to support design and assessment of surface water works including bridges, dikes, dams, diversions, water intakes, pump stations, surface water outlets to rivers, pipeline crossings, and mine infrastructure.
  8. Provide geoscience support during detailed design and the preparation of tender packages (including drawings, technical specifications, and construction cost estimates).
  9. Provide geoscience support during construction in cases where geomorphic interpretation and analyses can improve the final product or address mid-construction challenges by confirming changes in the geomorphic processes affecting the project.
