Mead, Colorado

Utility Test Holes and Hydrovac Excavation Services

Safe Site and NG Companies Complete Utility Verification Project

Safe Site Utility Services and NG Companies partnered to complete underground utility verification services for the town of Mead, Colorado. The project required accurate utility exposure, documentation, restoration, and field coordination. As a result, the client received reliable underground utility data before construction advanced.

Safe Site provided utility locating, Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE), and utility documentation. Meanwhile, NG Companies performed precision hydrovac excavation to safely expose underground utilities. Together, the teams delivered a complete utility investigation that supported the project’s next phase.

Project Information

Project Name: Mead
Location: Mead, Colorado
Services Provided: Utility Test Holes, Hydrovac Excavation, Utility Verification, CAD Processing, Traffic Control, Surface Restoration, and Field Documentation
Year: 2026
Completed By: Safe Site Utility Services and NG Companies

Scope of Work

Safe Site and NG Companies completed 16 utility test holes (potholes) throughout the project site. Each test hole helped verify the location of existing underground utilities and identify potential utility conflicts.

Next, NG Companies used non-destructive hydrovac excavation to safely expose each targeted utility. This approach protected existing infrastructure while allowing the crews to collect accurate field information.

For every completed test hole, Safe Site documented the utility type, utility size, utility material, and depth of cover.

After completing the field investigation, Safe Site prepared a comprehensive Utility Test Hole Summary Report. In addition, the team coordinated survey information to support future engineering and design activities.

Utility Verification and Project Coordination

Safe Site Utility Services

Safe Site Utility Services managed the utility verification process from start to finish. Throughout the project, the team documented field findings and coordinated several key project activities.

Safe Site’s responsibilities included:

  • Utility verification
  • Utility documentation
  • Utility Test Hole Summary Report preparation
  • CAD processing and project deliverables
  • Survey coordination
  • Permitting support
  • Restoration coordination
  • Traffic control coordination

     

Furthermore, Safe Site worked closely with the client to ensure accurate documentation and organized project deliverables. Consequently, the project team received reliable underground utility information that supported future construction planning.

Precision Hydrovac Excavation

NG Companies

NG Companies completed the excavation portion of the project using hydrovac excavation technology. Unlike traditional excavation methods, hydrovac uses pressurized water and vacuum equipment to expose underground utilities safely.

As work progressed, the crews completed each utility test hole with precision. At the same time, they minimized disturbance to the surrounding area and protected existing underground infrastructure.

The excavation scope included:

  • Utility test hole excavation
  • Precision utility exposure
  • Vacuum excavation
  • Support for utility verification
  • Coordination with restoration activities

Additionally, the crews adapted to changing site conditions whenever necessary. This flexibility helped maintain project efficiency throughout the investigation.

Surface Restoration and Site Support

Once the utility verification work was complete, the team restored each excavation area according to project requirements.

For roadway excavations, the crews completed restoration using flow fill and hot patch methods. In addition, the project required permitting, traffic control, and continuous field coordination. Together, these services helped maintain safe operations and efficient project execution.

Delivering Accurate Underground Utility Data

This project in Mead highlights the value of combining Safe Site’s utility verification expertise with NG Companies’ hydrovac excavation capabilities.

Together, the teams completed a comprehensive underground utility investigation that included utility exposure, documentation, restoration, and project coordination. As a result, the client received accurate underground utility data and a detailed Utility Test Hole Summary Report to support the next phase of development.

Ultimately, the partnership delivered dependable field information while helping the project move forward with confidence.
