Sechelt Locating FAQ

How is utility locating done in Sechelt?

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

Does ground type in Sechelt affect GPR?

Yes. Coastal sand and till benches with localized high groundwater near the inlets. GPR performs differently in clay, silt and granular ground, so the survey is adapted to Sechelt's conditions — and EM locating covers the metallic and tracer-wired lines regardless of soil.
