The SAR insignia consists of a Maltese cross surrounded by a garland, with a relief of George Washington in a center circle.
The cross's vertical bar represents the commandment "You Shall Love Your God"; the horizontal bar represents the commandment "You Shall Love Your Neighbor as Yourself." The four limbs are a reminder of the four cardinal virtues; its eight points represent eight spiritual injunctions:
To have spiritual contentment
To live without malice
To weep over your sins
To humble yourself at insults
To love justice
To be merciful
To be sincere and open-hearted
To suffer persecution

It's not required to notify the utility companies here in Louisville, Kentucky, prior to commencing excavation work, according to LG&E, when contacted by phone. I'd contacted them a couple of months ago to ask if it was a requirement for a contractor to notify them prior to excavating - LG&E's representative said it was not. They stated it was simply a "courtesy" if anyone digging would like to let them know. Again LG&E stated notifying them for markouts prior to commencing earthwork was not mandatory.
