Hi,
I need to build an outbuilding (40' x 20'). I asked the GIS department of our water provider for details of any equipment / lines they have on our land and it indicated a 4 inch cast iron "abandoned" water main in the area I wish to build.
I have information from the water board that I need to keep the same distance from abandoned mains as I do from in use water mains but they did not sound too sure...
Is anyone able to clarify the position regarding abandoned water mains and whether I can ignore them?
Best Regards,
J
