Farmers
Some farm work such as digging, cleaning ditches, sub-soiling, plowing fields, cutting drains, leveling land, and installing fence post can be hazardous activities near underground pipelines. These activities could put you in danger of striking or cutting into a pipeline.
Sub-soiling, digging, or cleaning ditches can be the most destructive, because the equipment used for these tasks can dig several feet below the surface.
Even merely redistributing surface soil, as with land leveling, can reduce the depth at which the pipeline is buried, leaving it more vulnerable to future digging or excavation.
Before doing any activity listed above, notify your state’s One-Call Center.
