US Utility Potholing

Utility Potholing is the practice of digging a test hole with the purpose of exposing an underground utility to give operators precise horizontal and vertical locations of that utility. Potholing is defined in Common Ground Alliance “Best Practices”.

US Utility Potholing & Air Excavation does their potholing via air excavation. Air-vacuum excavation is the best way to get to buried utilities for verification or repair.
