Re: [AFMUG] Plastic shovel ?
A vacuum excavator is the best shovel for digging around gas lines. I know a guy that made one out of two 55 gallon barrels, a shop vac and a pressure washer.

I have never had a problem using regular shovels around gas lines. Same as using a regular shovel around fiber conduit. It is all HDPE and pretty hard to cut unless you have sharpened your shovel and really whack away at it. Even if you cut a gas line (talking distribution, not transmission) it is no big deal. The gas is lighter than air and will go straight up. It is low pressure. You can clamp a service line to a house with vice grips.
