Storm season is here. Are you ready?

Digging project? Make the right call

All digging projects, no matter how large or small, require a call to 811 – it’s the law. Calling 811 before starting work helps to avoid accidents during digging that could result in loss of service or serious injury. Planning a weekend project? Be sure to call 811 by Wednesday to have utility lines and infrastructure marked for free.
