SITEC ENGINEERING, INC. 


KEY SERVICES 

Site Engineering

Property Survey and Utilities Design 

The primary professional service provided by SITEC is the planning, design and engineering of sites for the development of residential and commercial subdivisions, shopping centers, office buildings and industrial facilities. SITEC principals include senior site design engineers and surveyors with numerous successfully permitted, complex site development projects to their credit. 

                         

Site design involves the subdivision of land, the completion of property boundary and topographic sur­veys, building foot­print layout, the design of roadways and parking lots and the preparation of grading and land­scaping plans. Our objective in providing this service is to maximize the eco­nomic utility of land, consistent with sound engineering practices and current environ­mental protection standards. 

Integrated with all site design is the design of utilities including wells or water service, on-site septic systems or sewer service and road drainage systems. We maintain a current working knowledge of the latest regulatory requirements governing the design of utilities. Examples include the most current changes in Title 5, the Massachusetts Environmental Code regulating on-site septic systems and the newest Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) requirements for storm water discharges into wetlands and waterways.

We typically begin the site design process with an assessment of applicable regulatory constraints and existing physical and environmental limitations of the property. This initial assess­ment also often involves informal discussions with key local and state regulators. We then proceed with developing and analyzing site design alter­natives to arrive at the best approach to meet the client’s needs within prevailing regu­latory and site constraints. This effort continues through the permitting and public hearing process as plans are adjusted to meet community board, commission and agency require­ments. The final products are approved engineered site plans that are practical to construct.
