On the farm, excavation is a way of life, and accidents involving underground utility lines occur daily. Projects such as tile plowing, deep ripping, sub-soiling, and setting posts in particular can create safety hazards if you don’t know where critical underground utility lines like rural water, fiber optic, electric, pipeline, and high-pressure gas distribution systems are located on your property. Keep safety top of mind by always contacting JULIE before you dig to verify the location and depth of underground utility lines. It’s FREE, easy, quick, and can save your life.
Underground utility lines can be located 12 inches or less below the surface and depth can change over time due to erosion, land use, subsoil activities, land contouring, and other factors. So never assume the location or depth of underground utility lines. Striking just one can result in injury to yourself or others, cost you time and repair charges, and cause tremendous property and environmental damage that can impact your family for generations. Protect your land and your legacy by contacting JULIE to have underground utility lines marked for free. Every project. Every time.
