The
Akron, OH office of Arcadis, US had a project where
they needed to determine the location of abandoned Underground
Storage Tanks (UST’s) in Kent, OH.
The property had a record of once having had UST’s on site, but it was not known where they were located.
The objective of the GPR survey was to determine if the tanks were still on site
and to give their exact location so they could be removed
in order for a bridge to be constructed on the site.
The project was a success as Jamie Althauser
of GPRS was easily
able to identify the location of Underground Storage
Tanks and he was able to determine their approximate
size and depth.

Jamie Althauser is the Regional Director
of operations in Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania
