[QUOTE="OldMachinist, post: 13287, member: 437"] Just another note on this because I have lots of experience with this underground stuff. I have a little over 70 acres with several different right of ways. I have a water main line, several oil pipe lines, phone line and the fiber optic. Most of these run along or cross my half mile long driveway at some point.The last time I planned on trenching across the driveway I called the 1-800 number and the local phone company, water company, oil pipe line company and electric co-op showed up the next day but ATT didn't show up for four days so I called again and they showed up two days later. Hope you don't have a rented attachment waiting for them to show up. And then they tell you that you have to hand dig on three feet of ether side of where they mark just in case the line isn't where they think it is. I kind of regret ever allowing them the right of way but you think they are giving you some money and it won't effect you. [/QUOTE]
