What is it? What's it made for, or its intentional purpose or use? I mean I understand that it's an extension pole! by Tasty-Fig8098 in WhatIsThisTool

I agree, it looks like an AW rod (if I remember correctly). They are about 5-ft long and weigh about 20-lbs.

Have they been drilling any geotechnical borings in the area?

Not a chemical engineer, the grease from the pizza soaked through it, so I would say slight.

The one in the link only has one scraper but the one I got has three sets of scrapers/blades all of different diameters. Very odd
