Review note
USA North county list independently confirms Kern/San Luis Obispo and northern/central coverage; response page says electronic response mandatory. Energy Safety supports board role and complaints. DigAlert page returned no readable text and state outreach PDF403, so nine-county boundary cannot receive independent approval in this pass. Original review concerned the old southern-guide URL; replacement FAQ source must receive a new review. No approval is granted to a changed source by identifier reuse.
