Ground Penetrating Radar Systems, LLC. (GPRS) of Las Vegas, Nevada was contacted by a major environmental contractor to help locate underground utility lines such as gas, electric, power, water, or communication lines that may interfere with proposed soil borings that were to take place later that day. GPRS’ private underground utility locating was necessary as 811 or “Blue Stake” services will only locate on the public utility side of any meter. The contractor knew it was essential to recruit a private utility locator like GPRS, LLC. to locate all underground utilities to avoiding damaging them during the boring process.

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems (GPRS, LLC) was able to locate the private underground utilities successfully before soil borings. GPRS completes projects like this every single day and was able to clear each soil boring area of utilities to keep everyone safe and prevent any utility damages. Unlike most other utility locators who mainly or only locate using existing plans and signal detection techniques, GPRS conducts private utility locating with signal detection, electromagnetic induction, and ground penetrating radar tools. This gives added layers of confidence in the locating process as well as the power to locate more utilities and with far greater accuracy.

Ground Penetrating Radar, or GPR is a great tool for locating underground utilities such as water, gas, electrical, communication, sewer, and other objects prior to digging or excavating. Ground penetrating Radar can also be used to scan areas of post tension cables, rebar, and conduits, including PVC pipes. Working with GPRS also offers each client a “one-stop shop” solution for not only their locating needs but also for concrete drilling and cutting. GPRS provides reporting, GPS and CAD mapping in addition to underground utility locating. These services most often go hand in hand and are often needed quickly with little or zero notice. GPRS can help to streamline each job’s demanding needs by assisting with ground penetrating radar services as well as concrete cutting and drilling solutions.
