An open reservoir in a dry climate can lose four to seven feet of water off its surface in a single year. Across a multi-acre impoundment, that is millions of gallons that were captured, moved, or paid for once, gone before they ever reach a crop, a process line, or a tap. A floating cover keeps that water in the reservoir. It is a flexible geomembrane that rests on the water, rises and falls with the level, and anchors around the perimeter, taking the surface out of contact with sun and wind. It also shades out algae and keeps dust, debris, and waterfowl off the water, so what stays behind is cleaner. We have built geosynthetic systems for water and waste impoundments for more than 30 years. On a storage project the cover, the liner beneath it, and the anchoring are one system. We build all three.
