When the attorney feeds back I may update the erosion control. But I'm no taking liability for somebody who chooses not to water. Even if I put sod down it still needs water. I can the soil back in a condition conducive to root growth, but I cant control what the landowner does. I'll add a link to the JULIE website so customer can see what my responsibilities are there. I do think adding that the customer may need to expose their own things that's a good idea. Will be waiting on the attorney for the what I will do's since that can open a whole lot of liabilities. I've read through a bunch of them and they range from pristine restoration all the way to fuck you, pay me. I just dont want to hit some leech field tie in and have to pay for that. I carry more insurance than I need but I prefer to not use it. Most everything I can locate with the utiliguard, and I can repair most anything I hit unknowingly. An example is a nearby guy knicked an unknown LP run to a garage. It leaked half a full tank and he had to pay for it out of pocket. I'd pay it too, I just dont want to be obligated to.
