Hydro - G

Hydro-G are Hydrogeologists. Their expertise lies in delivery of field investigations. Employing the services of a hydrogeologist to assess the potential of an aquifer to supply a local community, housing, recreational or commercial development with water is an asset in terms of supervising the drilling company to ensure a sustainable supply of water that is safeguarded against potential contamination in the future.
Water well design, pumping test execution and analysis of sustainable yields, groundwater vulnerability assessments, source protection zone delineation and hydro-ecological assessments are delivered by Hydro-G.
Key personnel in Hydro-G are Dr. Pamela Bartley (B.Eng, M.Sc., Ph.D, MIEI) and Ania Kuzynska (B.Eng., MSc).
Pamela is a consultant civil engineer with over ten years field experience in hydrogeological investigations and site instrumentation. Pamela is a FETAC Certified Site Assessor and assists in instruction and interview of candidates for the EPA/FAS led Site Suitability for on-site wastewater treatment systems FETAC course. She is a member of the committee of the International Association of Hydrogeologists (Irish Branch) and currently holds responsibility for the organisation and management of the National Irish Annual Groundwater Conference. She completed her doctoral research at Trinity College, Dublin in conjunction with Teagasc and the EPA under National Development Plan funded research concerning groundwater vulnerability and the Nitrates Directive.
Ania is a consultant environmental engineer with hydrological, hydrogeological and hydro-ecological expertise. Project areas include environmental impact assessment, risk analysis, groundwater and surface water investigations and sustainability assessments for sensitive ecological areas of groundwater dependent terrestrial ecosystems (GDTE). Her expertise in hydro-ecology was gained at Trinity College Dublin, where she completed her doctoral research characterising the hydrology of Pollardstown Fen (Co. Kildare) with an emphasis on protection of the habitat of the rare species of molluscs Vertigo geyeri. Throughout her work in research, she gained a broad experience in multidisciplinary and technical investigations linking hydrology, hydrogeology and ecology.
