5 STEPS
FOR SAFE
DIGGING
Working on an outdoor project?
Careless digging poses a threat to
people, pipelines and underground
facilities. Always call 8-1-1 first. Here
are five easy steps for safe digging:
4. RESPECT
Respect the markers provided by
the affected utilities. The markers
are your guide for the duration of
your project.
5. DIG CAREFULLY
If you can’t avoid digging near the
markers (within 18-24 inches on
all sides, depending on state laws),
consider moving your project location.
