Stormwater Engineering

Stormwater modeling and flood studies are among our most requested services. Using advanced 1D, 2D, and 3D modeling tools and over two decades of real-world experience, we simulate complex hydrologic and hydraulic scenarios, from small development sites to full watershed systems.

​

By integrating geospatial data with regulatory requirements, we help stakeholders visualize potential flood risks and drainage challenges before they become costly problems. Our models inform smart decision-making while ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal regulations.​

Our flood studies are backed by in-depth field analysis and hydrologic data interpretation. Each report includes technical evaluations of floodplain behavior, peak flows, and mitigation measures, all designed to reduce risk and support sustainable land development.

​

Our stormwater engineering services support:

​

• Sustainable development

• Regulatory compliance

• Sewer system load reduction

• Water quality improvement

• Flood and erosion risk mitigation

​Stormwater Inspection & Certification

Our team conducts stormwater inspections during active construction and following significant rainfall events. We perform pre-inspection reviews, site assessments, and documentation of drainage systems, including inlet structures, outfalls, and discharge points.

Howard Civil Engineering provides stormwater certifications based on detailed analysis and deep familiarity with industry standards and municipal requirements. With a strong reputation across Southwest Florida, we bring precision and professionalism to every inspection.

Erosion Prevention

Erosion control is a critical component of effective stormwater management. For more than 20 years, we’ve helped stabilize steep slopes, streambanks, and shorelines vulnerable to erosion through innovative engineering and design strategies.

We begin with hydraulic modeling and velocity analysis, followed by solution-oriented planning that considers both short-term impacts and long-term sustainability. Our erosion prevention designs improve site safety, protect infrastructure, and contribute to better stormwater outcomes.
