Calling before you dig is important. Whether you're installing an underground dog fence or running water to an outbuilding, underground piping and other utilities can be damaged. It's as simple as 8-1-1. Call 811 or 800-292-8525 from anywhere in the country a few days prior to digging, and your call will be routed to your local One Call Center. Tell the operator where you're planning to dig, what type of work you will be doing and your local utilities companies will be notified about your intent to dig. In a few days, they'll send a locator to mark the approximate location of your underground lines, pipes and cables, so you'll know what's below - and be able to dig safely.
