Safe Digging Month in Illinois

Safe Digging Month winding down across Illinois, and Marianne Manko (Man-co) with the Illinois Commerce Commission says there’s a simple way to prevent serious accidents and that’s by locating underground utilities. You can do that through the JULIE system.
 
 
The Joint Utility Locating Information for Excavators or JULIE is available by dialing 811. This toll-free number operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 
 
Locate requests have a 28-day life, so it is recommended the digging project begins within 14 calendar days from the call. 
 
Once a site has been accurately marked, it is safe to begin digging around the marked areas.
