Ground disturbance refers to activities that disturb the terrain, such as construction excavations or utility trenching. Proper training is important because ground disturbance can affect surrounding structures, and can also damage underground installations. For example, an excavation without adequate planning can damage buried power lines or sewage piping. Ground disturbance can even have a negative environmental impact even when there are no surrounding buildings or buried facilities.
