DPPD: Dial into 811 before you dig into trouble.

May 2, 2023 · DPPD, POLICE

We would like to provide you with important information before you start your yard projects!

-Unsafe digging can damage service lines, leading to injury, costly repairs, and/or disruption to service.
-Homeowners should call 811 to have lines marked even for small yards or garden projects.
-If working with a contractor, make sure they call in advance before the project is started.
-You should call 811 at least three days before you dig to allow time for all affected service providers to mark their lines.
-Know the rules in your area before you dig!
