I am in the final stages of a house renovation and one of the items that is needed is a new water line from the utility meter to the house. A few weeks ago, the plumber put in for the locate and was told they were backed up 3 weeks which he didn’t believe. Since then, someone wrote “Duke / CLR” on the road, but that’s about it. The plumber says they haven’t gotten a clan dig permit yet. I understand the liability issues and why they won’t proceed until they do, but my questions are:
1) why the hell is this taking so long and it never took this long in the past?
2) who is responsible for doing the locate? Is it one entity or a rep from different ones?
3) is there any way to apply pressure to get this moving? It’s running the risk of being the thing that keeps us from moving back in.
