Are you planning a facility expansion or landscaping project that involves digging? Your location may contain underground utility lines. Call 811 before you dig. Knowing where utility lines are buried can help you avoid injury, service outages and costly repairs.

Dial 811 from anywhere in the country a few days prior to digging, and you will be routed to your local call center. Tell the operator where you will be digging, what type of work you will be doing and when. Within just a few days, your local utility companies will visit your site and mark the location of any underground lines free of charge.

Stay safe, and call 811 before you dig!
