Project Title:  BioBall Test Program - Sewer Pipe Locator on Residential Properties

Project Start Date:  4th Quarter 2011

Projected End Date: 4th Quarter 2012

Technical Details:

The Bioball is a water soluable spool of thin wire which is deployed via a customer's toilet. The wire is detectable using standard equipment enabling the location of nonmetallic sewer pipes. It is easily retrieved from the point of entry. This test program will determine the viability, accuracy and repeatability of Bioball in locating existing sewer pipes over a broad range of residential sewer applications.
