Underground Utility Locating
Underground pipes and utilities pose significant problems to any construction project or subsurface investigation program. Modification of design specifications can be costly in both time and money. Everyday more and more utilities are being installed and buried with no proper documentation. Geophysical methods can be used to locate underground utilities to control risk and avoid potential conflicts that increase project costs.Site activities that require the location and site mapping of underground utilities are soil boring, test pitting, excavation, demolition, reconstruction, the removal of underground tanks, and servicing old utilities. These activities often involve the excavation of large areas, increasing the odds that you will encounter underground utilities. Finding utilities in this way can be dangerous and expensive.
