A fresh order of safety gear has arrived for the summer work being conducted at Monteith & Sutherland. Brand new hard hards, safety glasses, gloves, vests, and other important safety gear is ready for use by our new staff, especially summer students joining us from the University of Waterloo and York University.
Mid Halton WWTP Effluent Outfall Tunnel Breakthrough
Congratulations to the entire STRABAG team working on the Mid Halton WWTP Effluent Outfall Tunnel.
Yet another accurate and precise breakthrough was made, notably due to tremendous efforts of the project tunnel surveying crew.
At Monteith & Sutherland we are happy to have had contributed to this success by performing numerous gyroscopic surveys, using GYROMAT3000 in order to verify the correctness of the complex underground traverse network spanning over 4 kilometers.
Spot on!

Thanks to Dennis Sherman and the Geomatics Club for their hospitality.
Merger joins key Sarnia-Lambton land surveying, engineering firms
For 70 years, the professional paths of Monteith & Sutherland Limited and James D. Nisbet Land Surveyors ran parallel, intertwined and separated again, always maintaining a cordial and respectful relationship in the market.
So it is with great pride that Glenn Dawson (right), Jack Monteith (middle) and Marty Nisbet (left) announce a successful merger of their two companies effective September 1, 2015.
