LEADING CAUSE FOR DELAYS, CLAIMS
![Page 5: 3D Utility Investigation & Modeling Design for HP Gas Main ...westernregionalgas.org/2019/presentations/Utility... · 3D Utility Investigation & Modeling Design for HP Gas Main Case](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070111/604f060fb7ed18395940cd08/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Safety Hazards
Undocumented Utilities create a Minefield
Rediscovery is never as good as documentation during installation
Advanced geophysical methods improve rediscovery

ASCE 38-02 (The Standard)
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/programadmin/sueindex.cfm
BEST PRACTICE
ASCE 38 – An Industry Standard
Require by State LawSB 18-167
![Page 8: 3D Utility Investigation & Modeling Design for HP Gas Main ...westernregionalgas.org/2019/presentations/Utility... · 3D Utility Investigation & Modeling Design for HP Gas Main Case](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070111/604f060fb7ed18395940cd08/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Importance of a 2-D Base MapAmerican Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Standard Guideline for the
Collection and Depiction of Existing Subsurface Utility Data, CI/ASCE 38-02
Quality Levels:
QL D - Verbal Account or Record
QL C - Records and Surface Features
QL B - Records and GP Survey and Analysis (identify, work through discrepancies)
QL A - Exposed and Verified – Discrete
P.E. Affixes Seal to Product
ASCE 38 elevates the utility investigation process to a professional effort, akin to
a geotechnical investigation or a property boundary survey, providing statutory
protections as regulated for professional engineering.
![Page 9: 3D Utility Investigation & Modeling Design for HP Gas Main ...westernregionalgas.org/2019/presentations/Utility... · 3D Utility Investigation & Modeling Design for HP Gas Main Case](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070111/604f060fb7ed18395940cd08/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• ASCE Standard Guidelines for the Depiction of Existing Subsurface Utilities resolves issues with poor records on existing utilities. (Resolves the Symptoms)
• ASCE Standard Guideline for Recording and Exchanging Utility Infrastructure Data resolves issues with poor as-built records on new or exposed utilities. (Halts the Cause)

HART Transit - City Center Guideway and Stations Kamehameha Highway 138kV Relocation
Project includes multiple iterations of installations by military (petroleum, water, telecom), private installations, and 3 eras of growth for water and sanitary sewer. 127 known alignments were identified and mapped. In addition, 275 unknown alignments discovered and mapped in one ½ mile segment, revealed and mapped with MCGPR, TDEM, and SPAR.

Potholing vs Geophysics/ASCE Standard Investigation
Potholing campaigns are expensive, disruptive, invasive, provides data with limited use, does not
sweep for unknowns, does not verify target was found, does not comply with ASCE standards, and is
unnecessary.
Test Holes are for verification, exploration for QL D targets, and QL A accuracy.
