Before You Dig
Dial 8-1-1 or 1-800-272-1000 before you dig. It’s free and it’s the law! Underground utilities exist everywhere, perhaps even on your own property. Digging can cause disruption of vital utility services and result in costly delays, expensive repairs, environmental or property damage, personal liability, injury, and even loss of life.
