Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) – Underground Utility Location and Utility Liaison.

Population growth and land development have transformed our right of ways in congested underground utility corridors. Accurate information of existing subsurface utilities is critical to any project, it is essential to develop strategies to reduce risk, or at minimum to allocate risk and to make informed decisions in planning the new infrastructure.

Based on location results and existing as-builts, we can prepare utility maps and conflicting utility logs. We deal with various utility agencies in conflict resolution matters. We have staff trained in FDOT Advanced MOT/TTC, capable of preparing MOT Plans and pulling MOT Permits if required.

We have the capability to locate buried facilities using complementing technologies: ground penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic induction. For more precise location we perform non-destructive vacuum excavation (softdigs). Our Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) designation and location services are provided in compliance with the American Society of Civil Engineering ASCE Consensus Standard (ASCE C-I 38-02 “Standard Guidelines for the Collection and Depiction of Existing Subsurface Utility Data”), and supervised and certified by a registered PLS/PSM.
