(3) The field mark does not indicate a subsurface installation type classified under the orange category of the “Guidelines for Operator Facility Field Delineation” in Appendix B of the most recent version of the Best Practices Guide of the Common Ground Alliance and in conformance with the uniform color code of the American Public Works Association.
(b) An excavator may use equipment other than hand tools within the tolerance zone of a subsurface installation for the purpose of determining the exact location of a subsurface installation consistent with the requirements of subdivision (a) if the equipment and the equipment's manner of use conform to the following requirements:
(c) An excavator shall request consultation with the operator of the subsurface installation to determine how to safely proceed if the use of hand tools, or equipment other than hand tools as permitted in this section, is not a safe and effective means of determining the exact location of the subsurface installation. The operator of the subsurface installation shall respond to such a request within two working days not including the date the operator received the request and shall discuss with the excavator how the excavator can safely and effectively proceed. An excavator may use equipment other than as permitted in subdivisions (a) and (b), if the excavator and operator agree in writing upon the equipment to be used and the manner in which it will be used.
