Contract Title. Replacement of Sewer camera and locator system to FMS inventory. 2. Background. FMS Pipe Shop performs many repairs across campus and some of these are underground utilities. As an aging facility, there have been many changes over the years. Many of these were not properly documented. This poses a couple issues that having this piece of equipment can make more manageable. First, relying on contractors to submit accurate As Built mechanical drawings to Engineering then having that information added to the facility drawings correctly. Even being off a foot can be detrimental when trying to locate a buried line without the aid of this locator system. Second is not knowing where pipes in interior walls are located. This system allows you to send a traceable signal along the length of any metal pipe and follow it with the locator wand. Both of these abilities help to reduce repair time. 3. Scope.
