Aquatic

Invasive Species
Aerial spraying is a very cost-effective and less labor intensive method for removing non-native invasive species. Because of the quick aerial delivery process over large areas, landowners can take advantage of the plants natural life cycle to make it vulnerable.
  • Works best for heavy infestation
  • May want to avoid low infestation sites that have lots of native plants active at during that time.
  • Will need to mitigate for drift issues and let neighboring landowners know what is going on.
  • Will need to watch toxicity for reptiles and amphibians as well as doses on stems of good trees, especially saplings.
  • Many heavy infestations do not have any diversity under them.
  • Instant response to additional sunlight by native species
Ditch and Stream Bank
The efficiency and capacity of ditches and drainage systems; streams, creeks and slow-moving or meandering rivers can be severely affected by aquatic vegetation and algae. In particular, non-native and/or invasive species, aquatic plants and algae can destroy a habitat, reduce holding and flow capacity, deplete oxygen and raise water temperature.

Through the use of environmentally friendly chemicals that target specific species, it is possible to control or eradicate non-native invasive species of aquatic plants and algae.

Pipeline Inspection
ALMA (Aerial Laser Methane Assessment) is operated on helicopters and is mainly used for transmission and gathering pipeline inspections. It provides reliable inspection results for underground as well as for above ground pipelines. It allows a save flight altitude and doesn’t require specific weather conditions contrary to other technologies in the market. The gas concentration is recorded along with a georeferenced video of the right-of-way. Severe leak indications can be reported real-time from the on-board flight engineer. ALMA was awarded type certification (STC) by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in 2011, by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in 2013 and by Transport Canada in 2015.

Aerial Survey

Through the use of any of our six helicopters, Provine Helicopters offers the service of aerial surveying. Most commonly used to survey forest land, we also have the abilities to assist in surveying of personal property, road ways and much more.
