We’ve got you covered!
Design
We design bypass systems to handle water volume and quality withstanding pressure and flow
Compliance
Management
Proper management protocols involving monitoring bypass systems water quality, quantity and flow ensuring appropriate water discharge
Bypass System Safety, Compliance, and Environmental Protection
Nexgen Environmental takes careful consideration in environmentally sound dewatering bypass system design to ensure that it can handle the volume and quality of water being pumped, and that it is constructed of appropriate materials to withstand the pressure and flow of the water. Cutting corners in the design phase can lead to structural failure and environmental damage.
Dewatering Bypass Systems Compliance
Bypass systems are subject to a variety of environmental and safety regulations. It is important to ensure that the system is designed and operated in compliance with these regulations to prevent harm to people, wildlife, and the environment. Cutting corners in compliance can result in regulatory fines, penalties, or litigation.
Bypass Monitoring and Management
Experienced and Trained Professionals
Nexgen Environmental follows ground water protection regulations as per the B.C. Water Sustainability Act (WSA) and WorkSafe B.C. escavation guidelines. We employ certified technicians providing continuous training and certifications to ensure safe and effective operations. Cutting corners in training can result in accidents, injuries, or equipment damage.
Dewatering Bypass System Preparedness
We maintain bypass systems through regular inspections and maintenance, periodically test the system to evaluate emergency response plans and identify areas for improvement, install monitoring systems for real-time data to detect potential failures, and continuously review and update procedures, plans, and protocols for enhanced preparedness.

Bypass Systems Project Specialists
We design bypass system components to divert excess water or water with high levels of sediment or other contaminants around the treatment system or treatment plant.
Nexgen Environmental’s team of experts design bypass system solutions to properly pump water from construction sites that have become saturated with water or contaminated with sediment, oils, or other pollutants, treating it before it can be discharged into the environment.
However, in some cases, the volume of water being pumped may exceed the capacity of the treatment system or the treatment plant, or the water may be too heavily contaminated for treatment to be effective.
In these situations, a bypass systems will need to be introduced to divert some or all of the water around the treatment system or plant.
Our experts work on the deign and logistics of the bypass systems pipes or channels allowing the water to flow around the treatment system and discharge directly into a nearby waterway or other appropriate location.
Bypass systems are typically used as a last resort when other dewatering and treatment measures are not sufficient to handle the volume or quality of water being pumped. However, these systems must be carefully designed and managed to ensure that they do not cause further environmental damage or violate regulatory requirements.

What is a bypass system?
A bypass system is a component of a dewatering system that is designed to divert excess water or water with high levels of sediment or other contaminants around the treatment system or treatment plant.
When is a bypass system necessary?
A bypass system may be necessary when the volume of water being pumped exceeds the capacity of the treatment system or the treatment plant, or the water may be too heavily contaminated for treatment to be effective.
How is a bypass system designed?
The design of a bypass system in dewatering must be carefully considered to ensure that it can handle the volume and quality of water being pumped, and that it is constructed of appropriate materials to withstand the pressure and flow of the water.
How is a bypass system managed?
Proper management of a bypass system is essential to ensuring that it functions as intended and does not cause environmental harm. This may involve monitoring the volume and quality of water being pumped, managing the flow of water through the bypass system, and ensuring that the water is discharged in an appropriate location.
What regulatory requirements apply to dewatering bypass systems?
Bypass systems are subject to a variety of environmental and safety regulations. It is important to ensure that the system is designed and operated in compliance with these regulations to prevent harm to people, wildlife, and the environment.
What training is required for operators of a bypass system?
Those who operate the bypass systems must be properly trained to ensure safe and effective operation. This may involve training on the operation of the equipment, safety procedures, and emergency planning.
What are the potential environmental risks associated with a bypass system?
The potential environmental risks associated with a bypass system include the discharge of untreated or improperly treated water into the environment, which can lead to pollution of waterways, harm to aquatic life, and damage to wetlands and other sensitive habitats. It is therefore important to carefully design and manage the system to minimize these risks.
