What is Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)?
Subsurface Utility Engineering is the act of identifying and classifying utility conflicts within a project site through a thorough utility investigation. Utilities are discovered through research and field verification, and are judged to one of four different Quality Levels. Each quality level is meant to represent the reliability of that utilities location and is based on the integrity of the data that was obtained to support the utility location.
Complete Utility Investigation
Private underground utilities exist on almost every project site. Visionary Subsurface Solutions has the knowledge and experience to ensure your project get completed smoothly and on time by discovering and mapping all utilities on the site. We have Vision Beyond the Surface.™
Precision Utility Mapping
Underground obstructions pose the biggest risk to drill crews when performing environmental and geotechnical sampling on project sites. The utility locator teams at Visionary Subsurface Solutions can keep your crews safe by marking any utilities near your planned borings.
Utility Data Integrity
Utilizing electromagnetic and ground penetrating radar instruments, Visionary Subsurface Solutions can detect the presence of underground storage tanks within a property limit, and can issue a report confirming the presence or absence of storage tanks.
