[QUOTE="O4L, post: 3644932, member: 24429"] You can dial 811(Call Okie) to get the underground utilities marked. They only mark what is owned by the utilities. They do not mark private lines but that shouldn't be an issue in this situation. That being said, I don't know if that will help because whomever is doing the "digging" is the one that is supposed to call in the locate. I don't know if the contractor that is supposed to bury the line will dig if he didn't call it in. Like others have said, they only bury phone and cable drops a few inches so you could do it yourself if you wanted but be sure and call for a locate so you don't cut someone else's drop. It is free to you. They have 48 hours to do the locate after you call it in. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
