Featured project
We partnered with Carver County to develop a slope failure risk assessment for Carver County. Our staff utilized a suite of GIS-based models to determine the likelihood that slope failures will have a negative impact on the county infrastructure. Through this model, we provided preliminary risk rankings and recommended locations for field assessments.

The Grand Meadow wind project, located in Mower Counties, Minnesota, involved the installation of 67 – 1.5 MW turbines within a 23-square mile area. The turbines convert wind energy into electrical power for the entire Mower County area. WSB provided services to the 100 MW project, developing a site permit application, wetland and habitat review and ALTA surveys.
