Adding ats to a 320 amp service and adding egc to gen. Panel with no conduit

[Lottidottie]

So the two 200 amp panels are in the house 150’ feet away from the detached garage where the meter, a.t.s, and generator are located. Direct burial feeders, is there any other way or do i really have to try and dig the feeder back up, throw a ground wire in and fill the ditch back in? Can the water bond stay landed at the house? I know ill be driving two ground rods at the ats. Any help is much appreciated!
