Given the location the guys in the blacks suvs likely have at least situational awareness of all of the contruction projects in their immediate vicinity.
This has to be the most backwards way of dealing with this problem. They know exactly where the construction is taking place - the plans are filed with the local municipality and all the relevant agencies have access. Why do they "watch" and "monitor" rather than proactively go out and say "watch out, there's an unmarked cable here" and keep them from cutting the cable in the first place? If these cables are THAT important, I'd think it would be critical to keep them from getting cut in the first place, rather than rushing out to fix them "within 24 hours". They could send guys out in white jumpsuits and hard hats and the backhoe operators would just assume it was normal bureaucracy at work (oops, we forgot to mark those cables on your map) rather than sooper sekrit black fiber that no one is supposed to know about - until they cut into it and the black SUVs show up and then they DO know about it - more than they need to know. jc
