WGM Group gets into water rights

WGM Group http://www.wgmgroup.com/ has helped build bridges over many bodies of water.

The Missoula design firm, for example, was lead planner for the overhaul of U.S. Highway 93 that included the design of several bridges up and down the corridor. Looking out for water that flows under and around those bridge project sites often meant consulting with hydrologists and water rights specialists.

Bridges are just one example of the company’s projects that call for the guidance of water rights and resource experts.

When it comes to water, the work to sort out issues such as what goes where and who gets what is complicated. John Westenberg and Bruce Anderson have long engaged in understanding water rights, and recently brought their expertise to WGM.

Westenberg and Anderson, along with Julie Merritt, Karl Uhlig and Susan Anderson, make up WGM’s new water rights and resources service team. The group has worked together for almost 20 years, most recently at Atkins Global in Missoula.
