Oklahoma Natural Gas contractor question

[huskres]

So I had a plumber out here and said I had a collapsed line. ONG just replaced some gas line right next to it and ran the mini excavator over the sewer lines. Do you think that could do it? I a pretty sure that piece of equipment weighs over 6,000lbs. Just sucks that this would be several thousand bucks and we have a baby on the way.

Contact ONG and bring it to their attention. I would think they would take care of it if there is a remote chance they did it. When did they replace the lines? Was it during the dry spell or after it started raining?

Is it collapsed where they went over it? If ground was wet, could happen.

It was wet that day and the tub has been pretty slow to drain after that.

Gas line and the excavator was in the back yard like 2 weeks ago

Definitely contact them. They are a good corp neighbor and generally try to do the right thing by their customers.

I will be doing that first thing in the morning tomorrow.

I wonder how deep the line is? 6000 lbs on a tracked machine doesnt seem like much ground pressure would be exerted in that one area...

No idea how deep the line is. It was wet outside and there is kind of a weird slope where it is. He was also digging and slamming the machine down right where the line turns.
