What hydro excavation projects are most common in Utah County?

The most common Utah County jobs are jetting and CCTV inspection of newly installed sewer and storm lines, potholing for fiber and utility bores, and utility exposure on new subdivision and commercial sites.

Utah County is one of the fastest-growing parts of the state, and much of the work follows new construction. Typical requests include:

  • Cleaning and camera inspection of new pipe before a city accepts it
  • Potholing to verify utilities ahead of directional drilling
  • Daylighting existing lines for tie-ins on development sites
  • Inspection and jetting of older lines in established parts of Provo and Orem

What permits and utility rules apply to excavation in Utah County?

Excavation in Utah County requires a Blue Stakes of Utah (811) ticket at least two business days ahead, plus an excavation permit from Utah County Public Works for county right-of-way or from the city for city streets.

  • County right-of-way: Utah County Public Works requires an excavation permit before any digging, trenching, or underground work on county property or in county right-of-way. Applicants submit plans for review before work starts.
  • City permits: Each city sets its own rules. Lindon asks for proof of a Utah contractor's license and liability insurance. Payson requires winter road cuts to be patched with cold mix and replaced with hot mix later.
  • State routes: Digging or traffic control in UDOT right-of-way requires a UDOT encroachment permit.
  • Tolerance zone: Within 24 inches of a marked facility, Utah law requires hand digging or soft excavation such as hydro excavation.
