Dominion Energy in VA/NC has been going back and burying thousands of miles of lines. They asked (and received) an easement from me and my neighbors. It went very quickly. The machines are able to bore underground for a significant distance so you could not even tell where they were burying them. While they were in there, they partnered with another company (and the state) to run fiber optic lines for high-speed internet (for which I was very grateful). We never had it before where my primary home is and had to rely on poor (slow/intermittent/expensive) internet from satellite or cell tower. They did not bury lines inside of subdivisions/to homes (at least not yet), and the internet provider provided the "last mile" of fiber.

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
