Ditch Witch vacs have safety requirements of their own, but they are also employed for one of the most critical safety precautions of any utility installation: potholing. By potholing, or using high-pressure water to expose buried utility lines, you can safely verify the location of the lines around which the digging or drilling operation will take place.
