Utility Locating Uses Science & Experience to
Minimizing Risk
A great
utility locator never feels like their job is 100%
finished. They try every possible tool in every relevant
way, until the line locations repeat themselves over
& over and no new lines are detected.
NSIS is Grant and Grant
is a Great Utility Locator
When you
hire NSIS for your private utility locating service
needs, you are hiring me, Grant Gikas. I am an engineer
with 20 years of underground utility & tank locating
experience compiled after 10 years of environmental
consulting experience. I’ve worked at tons of gas
stations, some oil refineries, almost every NJ Turnpike
& Garden State Parkway rest area, many NJ Department
of Transportation maintenance
yards,
large & small industrial plants, large & small
commercial retail properties, and plenty of large &
small residential properties.

Utility Locating
Minimizes the Risk of Damage to Buried Lines
To minimize the risks associated with
drilling or excavating at a site, NSIS uses
electronic equipment and other methods in an effort to
locate traceable underground utility lines at a given
site. The suite of electronic tools and methods used by
NSIS includes: Radio frequency (Rf) direct connection;
Radio frequency induction; Ground Penetrating Radar
(GPR), Magnetic field (Mf) anomaly detection, ferrous
Metal detection, and various mechanical snakes.
All Work is Completed
Subject to
Site Conditions & Equipment
Limitations
The tools and methods used to
locate a buried utility line most of all depends on:
- whether the person doing the work can walk unobstructed directly over the top of the underlying utility line;
- what material the line is made of;
- whether or not the line can be physically touched;
- whether or not the line be opened and mechanically snaked;
- how deep is the line below the ground; and
- whether there
are nearby radio or Emf transmissions interfering
with scanning equipment.
It turns
out that some underground lines can be found using
multiple locating methods; other buried lines may only
be traceable by one locating method; and yes, unfortunately
in the real world there are some lines that are just
untraceable!
