Water Services does regular non-destructive testing of the water mains/trunks/lines. I'm not sure who they currently use, but Pure Technologies was the city's supplier of choice for testing for quite a few years. However, the city has a lot of water infrastructure so only a sampling of the lines are tested each year and it can be a couple years before a specific line is re-inspected.
