Digging and water

I live in the Memphis area. Last week AT&T came out and dug a huge hole in my backyard without notice. Do they have the right to do this?

 

Kind of related, I went and looked and we haven't had much rain in the past month, but there is a foot of water in the hole. Is that normal?

The answer to your first question is yes, if the digging was done within the utility easement.

 

Concerning your second question, that should probably be addressed by a geologist.
