Nate Landry, operations manager for the Lewiston Water & Sewer Division, uses a geophone Monday morning to listen for water running under a driveway on Mountview Terrace. “It works great for hearing the water and rocks moving around just below the surface, but you have to be careful as you’ll go deaf if you clang them together,” he said. The device helped determine a location to start digging for a suspected water main break. Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal
Tom Freitas of the Lewiston Water and Sewer Division uses a geophone Monday morning to listen for water running under a driveway on Mountview Terrace.
