Since 2008, BSC has provided surveying services for Veolia Energy, such project has included steam line expansions (for example the 2+ mile 18” Lechmere expansion), surveying of Devonshire Street properties in downtown Boston to assist in system updates, and the location of multiple expansion joints based upon record plans.
