Yeah but I believe the rules if any are different here as the gas company has this stuff just laying on the ground in many places, not just here. Might even be nearly impossible to bury it in some spots.
Are the large gas mains laying on top of the ground also?
Hillbilly Hacking is no excuse for putting the public in harms way
So I guess the gas company by you can ignore the National fuel gas code also.
They use poly for gas for ease of installation, metal pipe would be safer on top of the ground, but then the gas company would have to actually work
You use a flow mole to install small gas lines and dig where needed
Directional drilling is another method
We had a gas line explosion up here in New Jersey by me a few years back
It leveled the house and almost killed 3 gas company workers
