I was told the epoxy additive was about 30 bucks a gallon and that was what pushed the cost overboard and that was allegedly why you don't see much microtrenching above a certain latitude.

....again, hearsay.

If I remember to look when I get back, the contactor that quoted us made a video.  I think they put it up a state highway at 18”.  The flow fill machine was right behind it and then some kind of rubber cap was put in right after that.

I heard Google's microtrenches were only a few inches deep.  If they got it down to 10" then road resurfacing shouldn't be an issue.  The same source told me Google didn't use the proper backfill.  The story was that the flowable fill needs an epoxy additive when the microtrench is above the frost depth.

I've never microtrenched anything myself, so this is all hearsay.

Don't microtrench if you can avoid it. Road resurfacing and cuts for other utilities makes this a hassle.  Google abandoned their entire microtrenched plant in Louisville after the resurfacing projects, or aging infrastructure repairs caused so many outages.
