This is in contrast to a design-bid-build contract, where the project is completely designed by the owner, then bid on, then completed.

Question: Who is required to verify and have existing utility lines marked?

Answer: contractors

<hl> Before the foundation can be dug, contractors are typically required to verify and have existing utility lines marked, either by the utilities themselves or through a company specializing in such services. <hl> This lessens the likelihood of damage to the existing electrical, water, sewage, phone, and cable facilities, which could cause outages and potentially hazardous situations.
