Helping a friend with a new housing development we found and unmarked unknowen gas line the hard way . It was a four inch plastic line from some wells . Nobody knew who put the line in were itstarted from or where it went and how to shut it off . myself i don't know how they put it in as no right of way was cleared as it was weaved around trees . We had to put in a forced main sewer line in from the lift station to the main some 4800 feet away and do a bore under and interstate then under a state four lane to the main . I went back and started the clearing for the forced main and i did not see any sings of a right of way . The engineering ferm had no knowledge of a gas line . BUT we found it with the track hoe less then three feet down . Nobody got hurt thank god , but repairing a live line was not fun . also i found a main communication line that was NOT where they said it was with the blade of a dozer . On that one we did call and the people came out a said it is HERE and i said Stick around and the second cut this huge black snake came rolling up off the blade , it was ten feet from where they said it was . Lots of arm flappen when it came rolling up lots of phone calls got CUT SHORT . And i was Well YOU SAID it was here NOT THERE.
