Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see not hokey david, I worked for a gas co. for 10 years, not only do you have to build a crossing over their pipe (up here you can use dirt or gravel 4 ft. deep or a bridge) but you must notify them when you are crossing and they will send out a co. rep to witness the crossing. it comes from an accident years ago when a co. was installing plastic rural gas lines in northern alberta, they where supposed to call any pipeline co. who's line they had to cross, wait until that co. came out and located the pipe, haul in gravel to get the 2 ft' clearance between lines, and then cross. contractor got p od about all the time it took so he got the crew to take off early in the morning using 2 d-9's one pulling and one plowing in the line with 2 young summer students walking along behind with shovels cleaning up the furrow. they crossed one of our 36" lines early in the morning (grazed the pipe took the yellow jacket off but didn't hit the pipe) in the afternoon after dropping lines at 2 farms they again crossed the line again and hit it dead center. there was nothing left of the plow cat but a melted frame, the 2 young summer students where vaporized just found a boot of one of them, plow cat driver the same. the pull cat driver was found about a 100 ft in front of his cat burnt to death. when i got there there was a combine and grainery still on fire, nothing left of the grainery but smoldering grain and the combine was still burning. a 36" gas line with a 1000. lbs pressure will make a very big crematorioum!! so you can thank that construction co. for your regs today.
