Underground / buried phone line locate
 
I live out of town and have buried phone lines to my house. Now that I want to build a fence between the house and the road, I contacted Alberta1Call to locate utilities so I won't mess anything up when I pound posts into the ground 3 feet deep. Alberta1Call immediately warned me that not all utilities may be included in the request, so I looked into the services associated with Alberta1Call, and I only saw pipeline, oil & gas producers and my natural gas provider... nothing else. My power is coming to my house overhead, but Telus's line is buried / underground and not included in this locate request. So... just called Telus. Who told me that they are associated with Alberta1Call, and that I have nothing else to do !
Makes no sense. Telus has NOT been out... my phone line is NOT located, but Telus tells me I'm good to go. So... I've requested an e-mail from them, following up on our conversation, stating that Alberta1Call is all I need to worry about, hoping that will cover my butt when I tear through their line...
Anybody out there with similar experience ?
