From Planning to Installation: What We'll Help You With
Project Scope & Objectives
- Define the overall project goal and installation purpose.
- Establish a preliminary bore path with proposed entry and exit locations.
- Determine project timeline, key milestone dates, and required completion date.
Subsurface & Geotechnical Data
- Review a Geotechnical Report relative to the bore path.
Site Logistics & Access
- Verify adequate site access for drill rig, support trucks, and personnel.
- Designate a laydown area for pipe fusing and equipment staging.
- Identify a water source for drilling fluid.
Permitting & Environmental
- Assist in identifying necessary permits (municipal, state DOT, railroad, environmental).
- Create a plan for the containment and disposal of drilling fluids.
Pipe & Utility Installation
- Confirm final product pipe material (HDPE, PVC, Steel).
- Verify pipe diameter, wall thickness, and bend radius.
- Plan for final utility tie-in requirements and connection points.
- Bore Plan Design
- Pipe Installs 2" to 24" (HDPE, PVC, Steel, Ductile Iron)
