Call Before You Dig!

Any time you disturb the earth, you run the risk of accidentally digging into underground infrastructure, which includes sewer and water mains, cable TV lines, gas lines or other services. Taking the necessary precautions before digging or excavating in your road/street right-of-way or yard will protect yourself, the environment and underground infrastructure. Sanitation District No. 1 provides a free-of-charge Call Before You Dig service to the residents in our service area.
