April is Safe Digging Month |
|
Safe Digging is No Accident. Call JULIE at 8-1-1.
Underground utility lines are unintentionally damaged at a rate of one per minute. Homeowners and professional excavators who fail to notify a state one-call center, such as JULIE, before digging cause approximately 40 percent of all underground utility damage. This statistic jumps to 60 percent for landscaping and fence building projects.
