Root depth Crab and Dogwood

I planted a long line of White Dogwoods and Robinson Crabapples only a 
foot and one-half away from a ditch.  The ditch has a plastic pipe 
covered by trap rock.  The pipe carries runoff ground water to a catch 
basin.  WILL THE TREE ROOTS COMPROMISE THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM?  The pipe is 
no less than 20" deep.  Our condo board needs assurance that all is 
well, or I'll have to move all of the trees.
Thanks
