Stormwater & Drainage

Effective storm preparation mitigates risk and reduces impact. At OEI, our stormwater division safeguards vulnerable areas by implementing comprehensive Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP). We design and install systems to systematically redirect stormwater away from high-risk zones. In the event of flooding, excess water is managed through storm sewers, detention or retention ponds, or other flood control measures. Our team expertly forecasts storm events, their duration, and water flow, optimizing strategies to redirect and manage the flow effectively.

Superior Water Quality Management.

The Clean Water Act mandates that communities effectively manage stormwater discharge and protect surface water to maintain water quality and ecological health. At OEI, we ensure that new systems not only integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure but also adhere to the Act's stringent regulatory standards. Our approach involves close collaboration with regulatory agencies to ensure compliance, proactively addressing potential issues and minimizing the risk of non-compliance while supporting sustainable water management practices.

Our stormwater team excels in mitigating flooding and optimizing drainage management by strategically directing rainfall to areas that alleviate flood risks, thereby enhancing public safety and mobility while minimizing property damage. Leveraging our extensive expertise, we adhere to design specifications and regulatory requirements, addressing drainage challenges and improving design solutions to support effective flood mitigation and water quality management.

Case Studies.

These real-world examples reflect our commitment to delivering effective, sustainable outcomes tailored to the unique needs of our clients.

City of League City

    • Complete rehabilitation of the Hwy 3 lift station.

    • The existing submersible pumps tied into piping that entered into a dry well area that was completely enclosed.

    • The new submersible pumps tie into piping above ground allowing easier asses and ease of maintenance. The old dry well was filled with cement stabilized sand and a new concrete slab placed over top.

    • A bypass pumping system was installed so no interruptions to the system would be required.  


    • Project Start/Completion Dates: November 2022-June 2023.

    • Location: League City, TX (Hwy. 3 Lift Station)

    • Estimated Construction Cost: $697,000
