Equipment Capabilities Ground Penetrating Radar offers the means to detect buried objects that are not detectable by other methods. In addition to the ability to locate metallic objects, GPR is able to detect nonmetallic objects. The system sends radar pulses into the surface, then it receives and processes the reflected energy. Through advanced processing technology, the system calibrates to the dielectric constant of the surrounding material. When the signal is reflected from a material having a different dielectric constant, the signal is displayed on the screen as an anomaly. Depth can also be determined by processing the sampling interval and determining anomaly. Depth can also be determined by processing the sampling interval and determining the size and comparing relative data of other objects detected.

The radar system is concentrating on changes in dielectric constants and not specifically analyzing the characteristics of those changes, therefore, determination of the composition of the object detected is limited, but possible to some degree.

Characteristics of the underlying soils will effect the penetration of the radar through the ground. Sands and gravel offer the best results with the greatest depth penetration and clearest resolution. Whereas, dense saturated clays offer limited penetration of the radar signal resulting in limited data to process from the returning signal.

GPR utilizes different bandwidth antennas depending on the desired result of the survey. A higher Megahertz antenna will offer the highest resolution, but will not penetrate the surface as far as a lower Megahertz antenna. The lower MHz antenna will penetrate to a greater depth, but the resolution will not be as great as with the higher MHz antenna. An example would be that a 1000 MHz antenna could easily pin point a household telephone wire behind 6 to 8 inches of concrete; a 250 MHz antenna might completely miss it.

With the following parameters in mind an example of expected performance would be:

500 MHz Antenna in clean dry sand, depth penetration 12-15 feet.

250 MHz Antenna in clean dry sand, depth penetration to 40 feet.

500 MHz Antenna in dense wet clay, depth penetration 4-6 feet.

250 MHz Antenna in dense wet clay, depth penetration to 15 feet.

Site investigation prior to radar deployment is critical in determining its suitability and capabilities for your specific needs. While we do make every effort to perform the most complete investigation, it is possible that due to any number of factors including those outlined above, an accurate detection may be difficult to produce in your area of interest.

The more information we have, the higher the degree of success can be expected. The biggest limitation of GPR technology is the composition of the material medium through which the investigation will occur.

Technical Summary Ground Penetrating Radar Investigation

For:

8562 Stoll Road Lansing, Michigan

A Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) investigation was performed at 8562 Stoll Road in Lansing Michigan on June 6th 2019. The purpose of the investigation was to determine and mark anomalies consistent with under ground storage tanks ( USTs ) and septic tanks in specific areas around the building.

A triple frequency antenna, operating at 1 GHz, 500 MHz and 250 MHz simultaneously, was used to collect the data scanning to an approximate depth of 2.6 meters. One meter grid lines were used in a North – South and East – West direction. Areas that could not be scanned were under and near the existing building, trees and vegetation.

Findings in the eight areas are as follows:

Area #1 Possible Septic Tank Area #2 Unknown Anomaly not consistent with a septic tank Area #3 Identified piping but did not find septic tank. Possible target area is covered by trees.

Area #4 Identified piping to this area but the possible target area is covered by trees.

Area #5 Found what appears to be a plastic tank near this area.

Area #6 Identified piping from the building and a possible septic tank.

Area #7 Identified two areas of recent excavations however no U.S.T...

Area #8 Identified an excavated area with an anomaly however it is not consistent with a U.S.T..

Area #1

Scanning in area #1 produced an anomaly consistent with a flat topped, metal reinforced concrete structure consistent with a septic tank.

Area #2

Scanning in this area did produce an anomaly however it did not appear to be consistent with a septic tank. No anomalies consistent with piping were observed from the building to this area

Area #3 and #4 Two anomalies appeared in this area in approximately the same direction. One pipe is coming from an anomaly consistent with a plastic tank. Exact locations of #3 and #4 could not be scanned due to tree coverage.

Area #5

No anomaly consistent with a U.S.T. was observed. A possible plastic tank is near this area.

Area #6

Anomaly consistent with piping from the building to what appears to be a septic tank.

Area #7

Anomalies consistent with two piping runs and two excavated areas however no U.S.T.’s were identified.

Area #8

Anomalies consistent with an excavated area as well as two anomalies similar to piping were identified however no anomaly consistent with a U.S.T. in this area.

Ground Penetrating Radar Update

Did you know:

* Radio frequency devices such as radar systems must be licensed with the FCC in order to be operated, imported, or sold in the United States?

* Intentionally or unintentionally operating or marketing an unlicensed, non compliant radar system is prohibited under the Communications Act of 1934?

* Penalties for operating, marketing, or importing unlicensed radar systems within the United States can include forfeiture, fines of up to $10,000, or up to one year imprisonment?

Is your system compliant? Ours is. Work Smart, Inc. Exclusively uses US Radar equipment. US Radar is the only company to carry FCC approved radar system as of February 2002.

Understanding the FCC rules applying to radio frequency devices has never been more important. We'd like to help you understand the basics:

Radar systems utilize multiple radio frequencies over extended areas. These frequencies have the potential to interfere with radio communications of all kinds if certain criteria are not met, as in the case of improperly shielded antennae which result in energy leakage.

Just because a company has been manufacturing, designing, selling, or leasing radar systems for many years doesn't mean their systems are compliant. Many companies have been operating for years with a total disregard for the US Code of Federal Regulations and FCC Rules. There are heavy penalties that can be levied against these companies, and if you own, lease or use their systems, you may incur penalties too.

The penalties imposed upon anyone who knowingly conducts business in violation of the US Code of Federal Regulations can include forfeiture, a fine of up to $10,000 or up to one year in prison or both;

these penalties increase with subsequent violations. In some cases, where FCC and/or international radio/wire communications regulations are violated and the United States becomes a party in the case, the person convicted of the violation will be subject to up to $500 for each day during which the offense occurred plus any other penalties that are applicable.

How do you know if a radar system has met the requirements of and has been approved by the FCC?

According to the US Code of Federal Regulations, all radio frequency devices must be "properly identified and labeled" as having been authorized by the FCC. If a company claims that their FCC approval is pending, or if they are advertising or exhibiting systems without the proper FCC labeling.
