You call miss dig they mark where anything is. Then get permission to turn the water off or have them do it. Start at the house cut the line dig as you pull to where you disconnected it from the meter. How far is it from the house to the meter? Why would you care if they damage the leaking line you're replacing?
Or even better just leave the old line in. I have fixed many with a tractor with a breaking plow a hundred feet only takes a few minutes to trench.
