Stop – Call Before You Dig

Anyone planning to dig, drill, blast, auger, bore, grade, trench or demolish anywhere in Pennsylvania must call Pennsylvania One Call System (POCS). POCS is a thirty five year old non-profit organization whose purpose is to prevent damage to underground facilities. It was formed to promote an efficient, cost effective communications network among designers, excavators, contractors and utility owners.

Call 800-242-1776 or 811, 24 hours per day, any day of the year. You are required to notify the utilities a minimum of three business days prior to excavating and ten business days prior to final design. Help us help you, please call before you dig. This action may avoid interrupted service to you and your neighbors as well as a potential tragedy.
