Davids Hydro Vac, based in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, took on this job site in downtown Minneapolis in March. Davids Hydro Vac was working for the local power company that was replacing an existing duct bank. The area of work was congested and the entire job was dug by the hydroexcavator. The area where the work was being completed was also heavily populated with underground utilities, including electric, fiber and a water main. The lead operator on the site was Shawn Bengtson.
