1Opinion of the CourtStephan, J.
Galaxy Telecom, L.L.C. (Galaxy), appeals from an order of the district court for Otoe County dismissing its action for damages against J.R Theisen & Sons, Inc. (Theisen). Galaxy sought recovery for damage caused by Theisen to an underground fiber-optic cable, based upon alternate theories of strict liability under the Nebraska One-Call Notification System Act (Act), Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 76-2301 to 76-2330 (Reissue 1996), and negligence. We conclude as a matter of law that Galaxy is entitled to recover under its statutory strict liability claim.
