April is National Safe Digging Month!
April is National Safe Digging Month – Call 811 Before You Dig!
As we welcome the warmer weather and the start of outdoor projects, it’s important to remember one critical step before putting a shovel in the ground: always call 811 before you dig!
April is National Safe Digging Month, a nationwide initiative to promote awareness of underground utility safety. Whether you're planning to install a fence, plant a tree, or start a larger excavation project, calling 811 ensures that underground utility lines are properly marked—helping to prevent damage, service disruptions, and serious injuries.
At NGA, we are committed to promoting damage prevention and excavation safety. We encourage everyone—homeowners, contractors, and industry professionals—to prioritize safety and make 811 a part of every project.
