The reason for that is that if one does not call call before dig, one would be liable. If one does call and misunderstands, the survey company would be liable. So those companies prefer to leave very clear marks.
The way it works in California is that the digger marks the work area in white paint and submits the location to the USA hotline. The hotline distributes this to all of the utilities, which then mark the location of their underground facilities, color coded (Blue - water, Red - power, Orange - telco/cable, Yellow - gas). The digger must will take care not to damage anything marked. http://www.digalert.org/ -- Jay Hennigan - CCIE #7880 - Network Administration - jay () west net WestNet: Connecting you to the planet. 805 884-6323 WB6RDV NetLojix Communications, Inc. - http://www.netlojix.com/
