Abstract: The need for underground protection legislation is obvious. For lack of a better reason, one can refer to the Department of Transportation regulations which provide that the enactment of such legislation obviates the need for permanent markers in class 3 and 4 population areas. 49 CFR I92,707(b)(i)(ii). However, other factors more clearly and definitely etch the need for this legislation. Headlines blaring the violence of serious, gas-related occurrences day-to-day apprehension concerning unreported damage and potentially calamitous results the pathos aroused by a family or an entire community victimized by a thoughtless, negligent act the unnecessary inconvenience and expense visited upon facility owners when damage occurs: these are reasons supporting the need for legislation to coounleract the threats and realities of negligent conduct.
