KLA Environmental Services, Inc., is a licensed civil, agricultural and environmental engineering firm, offering high-quality technical services, including:

Livestock Waste Management Systems
Complete planning and design services for livestock confinement facilities and waste controls. Operation and maintenance plans are developed which include application rates and agronomic and environmental recommendations. We also design application equipment systems, including pumps, pipelines, sprinklers and other components.

Feedyard Expansion Projects
We offer a complete turn-key design program for expansion projects of all sizes, from adding a few pens to major expansion projects.

Environmental Assessments
We provide a detailed environmental assessment for feedyards, auction markets and other confined animal feeding operations. This assessment is especially important before purchasing a facility.

Lagoon Permeability testing
The most accurate way to measure permeability in existing lagoons is the use of equipment that measures the difference between evaporation and the change in water depth using automated lysimeters and water-level recorders while floating on the lagoon. KDHE prefers this method of testing, as it is by far the most accurate. We have the equipment available to conduct these tests.
