Also... plastic for natural gas? loving yikes. That's always done in metal pipes here.

I don't think those were actually plastic pipes he saw. Sounds like CSST, which is corrugated stainless steel jacketed in plastic.

FWIW, I've seen PE gas pipes before as service lines to people's houses.

Buried obviously. Also, I guess technically I haven't "seen" them, just seen that they were labeled as Polyethylene on Locate reports.

Yeah, that's been a thing for a long time. Long enough that the metal tracer that was supposed to be on them has had time to rot off so lol good luck locating.
