GPRS’s office in Las Vegas, Nevada was hired by a client to locate utilities near underground storage tanks that were potentially leaking into the soil. GPRS utilizes both Ground Penetrating Radar as well as your typical electromagnetic locating wand. The area scanned for the tank was roughly 20’x30’, just out front of the main building. It was very important to have us come out and locate the utilities since there were multiple utilities running near this area that nobody knew anything about. We were able to trace out all of the electrical and water lines in the area to give the client options for where they wanted to take soil samples from. Once all of the lines were identified, we were able to confirm the depths by using GPR to see the lines underground. Call GPRS and we will find all your necessary underground utilities that are blocking your clear route for soil borings.

Along with marking all findings on the ground with either pin flags or paint, GPRS also offers a service of collecting all the findings with a GPS and putting it into a google earth overlay or CAD for future reference. We can typically have the google earth overlay to the customer in 3 to 4 business days.
