Im putting up a fence around my backyard and after hitting a water pipe in a part of my yard that should not have a water pipe, i decided to call 811. The water pipe issue was simple enough to resolve with my repair skills. I still dont know where the pipe goes however.
Anyway. After dialing 811 a the utilities should come out and mark their stuff. I got home today and found this.
Any idea what this means? This is the only marks on the property.

No underground phone lines that belong to ATT are on your property.
ETA: utilities companies like gas and water are only responsible for their lines up to the meter. The meter to your house is your responsibility and they will not mark it. Sometimes if the meter is at your property line, they'll mark it as "PL" or "PL set".
Orange is communication, red is electric, green is sewer, blue is water, yellow is gas.

Should have made a one call before digging. The water pipe, was it pressurized? If not, it wasn't water but a sewer pipe. Also, how old is the property? You might have an old septic tank.

Call before you dig.
