Always call 811 before starting any digging project!

 

One easy phone call to 811 starts the process to get your underground utility lines marked for free. Local One Call Center operators will ask you for the location of your digging job and route your call to affected utility companies. Your utility companies will then send a professional locator to your location to mark your lines within a few days. Once your underground lines have been marked, you will know the approximate location of your utility lines and can dig safely.   Click here for information.
