  • Protect, conserve, and restore ecologically sensitive areas
  • Accentuate the City’s sense of place and historic character around water
The City of Charleston selected a team of engineers, architects, landscape architects, and ecologists to develop the plan.  Black & Veatch’s Charleston office serves as prime consultant and civil engineering lead.  Waggonner & Ball, leaders of Dutch Dialogues Charleston, leads overall Water Plan development and urban design.  Moffatt & Nichol leads coastal risk mitigation and engineering, and Biohabitats leads nature-based design.  Deltares USA is leading the Plan’s groundwater research.
