811 Day is observed every August 11th to remind us to call 811 prior to any digging project. 811 is the national number designated by the Federal Communications Commission to help protect homeowners and professional excavators from unintentionally hitting underground utility lines while working on digging projects – large and small. It is a FREE service. If you are planning to dig anywhere, you must call 811 prior to digging.
