Utility Easements: Who's Digging in My Yard?

News Posted on June 26, 2025

The State of North Carolina allows public agencies and utility companies, like Spectrum and Google Fiber, the right to work in front of a resident’s yard, provided the work stays within the public right-of-way. 

Google Fiber and Duke Energy have begun a large-scale installation project in Holly Springs that may impact the right-of-way in front of homes and businesses in the community. 

Have questions or concerns? 

Contact Google Fiber directly: 

For Duke Energy, call the Public Engagement Hotline at 866-297-5886.
