Zeigler Geologic Consulting, LLC: Complete geologic services for the Western High Plains
Welcome to Zeigler Geologic Consulting, providing geologic services for New Mexico, eastern Colorado and western Oklahoma. ZGC was incorporated in February of 2009 and offers a range of services including (but not limited to) groundwater resource management for agriculture, paleontological resource management, and mineral resource assessments for conservation easements.
Announcements!
It's been a bit since we've updated the website, but we would like to note that we are still here! We're continuing to serve our agricultural communities on the western High Plains of New Mexico and Colorado, as well as assisting our energy and infrastructure proponents with navigating potential fossil resources on a wide variety of job sites.
We are also assisting our western Mora County communities with groundwater monitoring as part of the recovery effort for the Hermit's Peak-Calf Canyon Fire.
Services
Groundwater resource management: ZGC offers custom groundwater resource plans for ranches and farms. We'll design a three to five year water level monitoring program that syncs with your crop and/or herd management plans. A custom groundwater plan includes water level measurements, tritium analyses (recharge assessment), water chemistry, and geologic mapping designed specifically to help you know your groundwater resources. ZGC works to incorporate geoscience into range and crop management for better agricultural production and resiliency in our rural communities. If you are a producer in Union, Harding, Colfax, Mora, southern Quay or Las Animas Counties, there are existing groundwater monitoring programs available through your SWCD.
Paleontology resource management: Do you have a construction ROW that will cross BLM-administered lands and/or is a federal action? Be alert for the possibility that your ROW may be subject to survey and monitoring for fossil resources! ZGC carries New Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado state-wide BLM permits and can provide desktop and pedestrian surveys, as well as on-site monitoring and mitigation for fossil material.
