8-1-1, a free service managed by Underground Service Alert, ensures that people remain safe when doing digging projects.

Always call 8-1-1 before you dig. After you call, Underground Service Alert will contact PG&E and other companies that have underground lines in your area. Representatives will then mark the location of their underground lines so you can avoid them and dig safely. Whether you are planting a tree or a garden, or digging holes for fence posts, call 8-1-1 at least two business days before you plan to start your project.

8-1-1 is a program of Underground Service Alert (USA).
