With homeowners and businesses tackling spring and summer projects, FirstEnergy, reminds its Pennsylvania utility customers to always dial 8-1-1 before digging to avoid hitting underground electrical cables and other utility installations.
April marks the eighth annual National Safe Digging Month. Calling 8-1-1 assists FirstEnergy’s utility companies provide reliable electric service and protects homeowners and contractors from potential injuries or costly repair bills from digging into utility lines.
Homeowners and contractors should contact 8-1-1 three days before startning a job to be connected to the Pennsylvania One Call Center, which then will notify the appropriate FirstEnergy utility company and other utilities about the work being planned. Professional locators are then sent to the requested digging site to mark the approximate locations of underground lines with flags, paint or both.
According to Pennsylvania One Call, every six minutes an underground utility line is damaged because someone started to dig without first dialing 8-1-1. Every digging project – even something as simple as installing a mailbox, building a deck or planting a tree – warrants a call to Pennsylvania 8-1-1 before the first shovelful of dirt is turned. Waiting to start a project until lines are located and marked makes good sense, because striking a single line can lead to injury, cause outages, and result in costly repairs or fines.
