What hydro excavation projects are most common in Washington County?
The most common Washington County jobs are utility potholing and daylighting for new development, tie-ins to existing water and sewer lines, and jetting and CCTV inspection of new pipe.
Washington County's growth means constant utility extensions through already-served areas. Typical requests include:
- Potholing to confirm utility depth before boring or trenching
- Daylighting lines for tie-ins on residential and commercial sites
- Soft digging in hard, rocky desert soils where hand exposure is slow
- Cleaning and camera inspection of new sewer and storm lines
What permits and utility rules apply to excavation in Washington County?
Work in public right-of-way in Washington County requires an encroachment permit from the county or the city that owns the road, in addition to a Blue Stakes of Utah (811) ticket at least two business days before digging.
- County right-of-way: Washington County Public Works requires contractors to be bonded with the county and to provide a certificate of insurance naming the county before work begins.
- City permits: St. George, Washington City, Hurricane, and Ivins issue their own encroachment permits. Washington City requires one for all public rights-of-way and easements, and Ivins requires notice to Public Works two working days before work.
- State routes: A UDOT encroachment permit is required for digging or traffic control in UDOT right-of-way. Delta is a UDOT Masterworks Registered Vendor.
- Tolerance zone: Within 24 inches of a marked facility, Utah law requires hand digging or soft excavation such as hydro excavation.
Does Delta work in St. George?
Yes. Delta provides hydro excavation, hydro jetting, and CCTV pipe inspection in St. George. The city permits work in its own streets. Because crews travel from northern Utah, St. George projects are best scheduled in advance so potholing, jetting, and inspection can be combined in one mobilization.
