HISTORY:
Central Florida Underground, Inc. was incorporated in the
state of Florida in 1967 by Mr. D.A. Foster, founder of
NUCA, as a subsidiary company of Potomac Industry - D.A.
Foster Trenching, Inc. of Fairfax, Virginia. Originally the
facility was located in Winter Park, Florida, on Clay
Street. As Central Florida Underground, Inc. evolved, work
for the local municipalities was bid, and also to Southern
Bell. In 1986 the company relocated its' facility to the
current location in Altamonte Springs, Florida.
TODAY:
In Altamonte Springs our office and on site vehicle
maintenance shop consists of 7,200 square feet and sits on
two acres of property. We have been able to obtain and
retain a core of employees that are dedicated to their jobs.
This dedication has helped Central Florida Underground

years. As an example each of our foremen have built a
