  • Survey and Mapping

    D&K’s survey party chiefs and technicians are led and mentored by a senior licensed land surveyor. We provide topographic, property, hydrographic, bathymetric, right-of-way, and construction survey. Our survey parties establish horizontal and vertical control, as well as construction baselines and stakeout. Property survey services include deed research and preparation of property plats for filing with…

  • Slopes and Retaining Walls

    D&K provides slope and structural engineering, hydrogeology, hydrology and hydraulics, fluvial geomorphology, planting plans, permitting, and construction phase services for slopes, retaining walls, earth-supported structures (foundations, culverts, bridges, and dams), and other earth retaining systems. We design slope protection projects to address river channel-induced erosion, local erosion, and acute erosion from the top of embankments….

  • Civil-Site Engineering

    D&K’s civil/site staff provide local, state, and federal clients with the technical expertise to determine project feasibility, suitable site selection, and compliance with agencies, while being sensitive to community concerns and environmental and site constraints. D&K provides land use planning, site selection studies, site and utility engineering, stormwater management, lighting and site electrical design, environmental…

  • Stormwater

    D&K’s hydraulic, civil, stormwater, geotechnical, and environmental engineers; planners; landscape architects; hydrogeologists, hydrologists; environmental scientists; and surveyors deliver successful emergency, short-term, and long-term stormwater management solutions. We develop, design, and permit cost-effective, low-maintenance practices for projects that address flooding, pollution, erosion, and stormwater treatment and management. We design green stormwater best management practices (BMPs) for…

  • Alburgh Water System Improvements

    The Alburgh Village Water System (WSID 0005316) uses a surface water intake from Lake Champlain, a water treatment facility, and water mains to supply approximately 400 service connections and a population of 576. The water system included an elevated painted steel storage tank constructed in 1988 that served Alburgh’s Designated Village Center, South Alburgh Fire District No….

  • US Coast Guard

    DuBois & King leads a five-year on-call contract to provide civil, geotechnical, structural, and MEP engineering; environmental documentation and permitting assistance; land survey; landscape architecture; and construction phase services. The contract serves Coast Guard Units located throughout the Coast Guard First District, including Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Eastern New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Vermont, and…

  • Geodetic Leveling at SMIAs

    At a range of Salt Marsh Integrity Areas (SMIAs) along the East Coast, the US Fish and Wildlife Service studies storm and climate change impacts to coastal wetlands using elevation data as one metric. Following Hurricane Sandy, FWS identified 10 locations that required additional survey control benchmarks. D&K inventoried and visited each site, performed geodetic…

  • Merchants Row Rain Garden

    To collect, infiltrate, and treat stormwater from a one-block, one-way street with parking and sidewalks, D&K designed a rain garden and sidewalk extension. The project disconnects a significant amount of impervious surface from the closed drainage system and provides additional space for pedestrians to safely navigate the crossings at this four-way intersection. D&K provided survey,…
