Environmental Canine Services LLC (ECS) is the leader in illicit discharge detection and source tracking in storm drainage systems. As the first and only company in the world to scent train canines as a rapid screening method to track contaminants in stormwater, ECS has proven to be a cost effective and accurate option for meeting Phase II NPDES requirements.
By using these scent trained canines to investigate stormwater drainage systems, ECS handlers receive immediate feedback on the presence or absence of human sewage and/or detergents in stormwater. This immediate feedback allows ECS and their clients to track the source on the fly without expensive water sampling at every turn.
Our Illicit Discharge K9 Unit has the ability to investigate 50 or more stormwater structures in 6 hours of field time. This translates to lower sampling and personnel costs and shorter times beaches are closed to residents and tourists.
ECS employees are not only experienced dog handlers, but experienced stormwater professionals as well. We offer additional services to assist with stormwater monitoring, soil erosion inspections, and staff training, to name a few. Additional services offered are described further in the Services tab.
