Spring Projects - Safe Digging

With spring upon us, you may be planning some outdoor projects.  We want you to be safe so whether you are undertaking a big project like installing a fence or even if you are just planting a tree or shrub, remember to call before you dig.  It doesn't cost you a thing and what it can save you is priceless.  So remember to call MO One-Call at 1-800-DIG-RITE or now you can just dial the nationwide number 811 and you will be directed to your local one-call system.  The member utilities will come out and mark their utilities.  All you need to do is CALL-WAIT-DIG!    Remember that the depth of utility lines vary so don't make any assumptions when digging.  Digging without knowing what is below the ground is risky business.  You could disrupt service to an entire neighborhood or hurt yourself and others around you.  Also damaging utility lines could potentially result in fines and repair costs. So protect yourself and your family and call MO One-Call or 811 before you dig!
