Trenching water line - Try to miss underground sprinkler lines or just repair later?

Good point. I can do the connect off the current hydrant last. I may also be adding another lateral line up higher in the trench for a future zone of sprinklers.

was able to get the 5 sprinkler lines uncovered by hand digging tonight. i should call my spinkler guy and thank him for the map. it saved a lot of hand digging. It has also been wet here lately which made the digging much easier. Anyway, the plan will be to dig with a backhoe around the lines tomorrow then Saturday trench the rest and plumb the hydrants.
