Two safety points to remember once our lines have been marked
- Line locates are shown by the placement of flags, but this does not mean the power lines are directly below the flags! Give yourself two feet on either side of each flag to keep a safe distance away from any underground power line.
- Any digging within the line locate range, two feet from a flag, must be dug manually. Don't risk using any mechanical equipment when you are so close to a line.
