Mission's Network

Mission is served by the municipal water system serving Mission and its surrounding Fraser Valley distribution network. The network typically mixes ductile-iron, PVC and asbestos-cement mains of varying age, each of which transmits leak sound differently and benefits from matched detection methods.

Ground & GPR

Steep till and bedrock slopes above the river; floodplain soils along the waterfront flats.

For Mission Contractors & Trades

Excavators, coring/cutting crews, trades and engineers working in Mission use professional locating to clear dig areas and scan concrete before they break ground or cut.

Mission Locating FAQ

How is utility locating done in Mission?

In Mission, technicians combine electromagnetic (EM) line locating for metallic and tracer-wired services with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for non-metallic pipe and concrete scanning. Mission is served by the municipal water system serving Mission and its surrounding Fraser Valley distribution network, and the locate is matched to the local network and ground conditions.

Does ground type in Mission affect GPR?

Yes. Steep till and bedrock slopes above the river; floodplain soils along the waterfront flats. GPR performs differently in clay, silt and granular ground, so the survey is adapted to Mission's conditions — and EM locating covers the metallic and tracer-wired lines regardless of soil.
