The leak is the entire line from the valve to the meter, buried in my front yard. It was done when they used a vinyl ( Code-Approved) material that subsequent testing showed that it deteriorated in contact with the ground over time.
I have been told that my Home owner's insurance might cover it. But then also warned that my Home owner's insurance might cancel me if I filed the claim.
PS,
AFAIK, all of my neighbors are OK. This might be the test!
