Before you dig, protect yourself and your community—call 811. This national call-before-you-dig number connects you to a free service that locates and marks underground utility lines with paint or flags, helping you avoid accidental damage. Be sure to contact 811 at least three days before any digging project. Striking a buried line can lead to service outages, costly repairs, or even serious injury or death. Always call 811, wait for confirmation from all utility providers, and confirm all lines are marked before you break ground. #NaturalGas #ContactDigAlert #CityofVernonCA #SafetyFirst Antes de excavar, protéjase y proteja a su comunidad: llame al 811.
