You should not care how hard it is to get that letter, and if the gas company is not willing to provide that letter, then their verbal okay is not going to hold any weight should anything happen.

Recommend they get the letter. It will protect your client and you.

The gas company will not be able to say 'We did not know it was THERE.'
