My situation with relation to guying is this:

The setbacks for inground guy anchors are the same as for any other
building structure--6 feet off the side or rear yards.  The fact that
the anchor is sub-surface seems to have no bearing on the setback
requirement.  I have one anchor set 8 feet off the side line, the 
rest are well off the line.  They required a survey to be done
to show that, indeed, the proposed location of the guy anchor was
far enough away from the line.
