This past sunny, hot weekend, thousands of Angelenos took to the mountains and beaches for hiking, biking, rollerblading and jogging. Many of these people likely had a moment when they looked around with a smile and thought, wow, what a life we live here, how lucky we are, compared to the unlucky fo…

We at Arroyo/AES have been very busy all year long with all kinds of projects: fault studies, landslide investigations, percolation tests, but not too busy to have a good time at our recently rehabbed office/fun space. Here are some pics from some of our more interesting projects in recent weeks, "horsing" around, and also from our late summer party a few months ago!

Our environmental work often takes us to some interesting environs right here in southern Cal. This job required drilling.. for oil! and this is not in some remote corner of Wilmington or Long Beach.. this is right in the heart of prestigious Beverly Hills, close to the Greystone Mansion. Oil and tar occur naturally in the shallow subsurface here.

A recent environmental investigation project of ours involved the use of ground penetrating radar to indicate buried storage tanks, utility lines and objects for us to avoid during our site exploration.

Wearing suits is cool. But as geologists, we don’t get to wear suits daily. Ours is generally a much more casual dress code, driven mostly by the fact that a practicing geologist will spend at least half of his working hours in the field, climbing in and out of test holes, mapping, hiking, and frolicking around a site. we are typically in contact with mud, dust, water, debris, and of course, earth! So the garb must be comfortable, and not fancy, since we often have to get down and dirty.

I recently read an article in Engineering News-Record about large construction project owners pursuing consultants that can provide integrated services; to include exploration and testing, design, as well as construction services under one roof. Turns out this is true at the smaller project level as well. Hiring one firm to provide several inter-related services certainly reduces costs, but more importantly results in a better, more efficient design, and saves crucial time during construction. We at Arroyo Geoscience, working with our sister company Applied Earth Sciences, provide just such integrated services for our clients. In fact it's what we specialize in. Contact us to see how we service your project needs.
