WHO WE ARE
Surface Water Solutions was created 15 years ago to provide support for anyone trying to protect water quality in a surface water body – be it a pond, lake, stream or river. The solutions were based on managing the soil and run-off before it got to the receiving water body. But both then and now, improving soil and storing water are key to protecting not just water – but our very survival.
Surface Water Solutions Web Services
Surface Water Solutions Web Services was created originally for Surface Water Solutions after searching for someone to create our website. Because we have very different potential clients, we needed a concept outside of traditional design. A “pretty face” or flashy site might catch their eye – but what matters most is that we create something that assures potential clients that your company has the knowledge, expertise, and experience to meet their needs.
There are special challenges for a science-based company. Marketing is very different. And it is more than just the right search terms. As a science-based company, the type of products we provide are often unique to each customer. Some of the groups we’ve worked with include communities faced with regulatory compliance challenges, organizations with grant focused needs, and those focused on community building, or educational plans. Surface Water Solutions is one We faced those same challenges, and we formed Surface Water Solutions Web Services to provide a platform for those products.
Primarily we create web-based environments to allow collaborative solutions to natural resource challenges. That has been our primary focus. Everywhere you look we face challenges. Air, water, soil, food, climate, supply. The solutions to these problems are not simple or quick and require a combined and committed approach.
Vera Williams
Founder / Soil Scientist
Drawing from over 30 years of experience of applying sensible science to real life problems, I bring a unique perspective to apply to environmental issues and to protecting natural resources. My passion is creating tools and relationships to create sustainable urban landscapes that meet the needs of all who live there. Soil, water, and plant health are critical to our survival. Supporting that health needs to be at the core of all our management decisions.
Along with that experience is a solid understanding of how to utilize the web to represent your business and to provide quality projects for your customers.
I am a Chemist, Environmental Scientist, Soil Scientist, and trained in Environmental Toxicology with a focus in Pesticide Toxicology. I have lab experience in organic, pesticides, inorganics, soils, protein, microbiology, biology and biochemistry labs; as well as field testing and sample collection. With that information we then build pragmatic solutions for complex problems.
