Call before you dig, it's the Law!

Avoid Underground Hazards

Striking buried utility lines can cause serious damage and expose you to injuries. Call 811 before you to dig to avoid hazards. 

Underground electric, gas, communications and water lines are everywhere—even on private property. Striking a single line while digging can cause serious injuries, as well as service disruption that may result in repair costs, fines, and environmental damage.

The good news is that you can easily avoid these hazards by having your underground pipes, wires, and equipment located and marked out for free.

Call 811 First—It's the Law

Call 811 at least 3 and no more than 10 business days prior to digging to have underground pipes, wires, and equipment located and marked for free.

Digging projects include:

• Planting a tree
• Putting in a new mailbox post
• Installing a fence
• Doing any kind of home, garage, or deck construction
