Borehole Application

Applications are required for any sub-surface disturbance to streets, lanes or UR/W as per the Streets Bylaw. There is currently no fee for this application.

Our group works closely with consultants who are trying to identify and, if necessary, remediate any contamination located within The City of Calgary. All applications for borehole investigations are treated with confidentiality.

The City’s Utility Line Assignment approval process for borehole applications has fully transitioned online.  All applications requiring a utility alignment must be submitted through the Calgary Rights-of-Way Management (CROWM) portal at crowm.calgary.ca. This is the online place to manage all applications requiring a utility alignment permit.

To use the online service, customers require a City of Calgary myID business account. myID is an online service that provides citizens and business owners with access to multiple City services using a single account.

To get started, visit crowm.calgary.ca and follow the step-by-step instructions.

Once your application has been submitted, a Utility Planning Specialist will review the proposed alignment for the borehole. Please note, a License of Occupation is still required.

For third-party investigations of a geotechnical nature or other, an Indemnification Agreement via Roads is still required and can be requested online. If you have any questions regarding myID, please contact 311. For questions regarding CROWM, please contact ULASupport@calgary.ca.
