Hydrovac waste

Description

Hydro excavation (hydrovac) involves using a combination of high-pressure water and vacuum technology to excavate soil. This process is typically used to locate and expose existing underground infrastructure or for the installation of new underground infrastructure. It reduces the risk of damaging already-existing underground utilities and can minimize the ground surface disturbances.
