South Carolina 811

“Know what’s below. Call 811 before you dig.” Campaign

Evergreen (no expiration date)

Program Description:

Damaging an underground utility can cause many problems, including outages, injury, and even death. SC811 is a free communication resource for the prevention of damage to underground infrastructure. Excavators can place a locate request by calling 811 or submitting it online through sc811.com/excavators. Through this simple process, underground utilities are located and marked to avoid potential excavation damage.

This campaign includes three (3) PSAs in English. The PSAs encourage excavators to use the 811 service before starting any digging project. More information is available at sc811.com/excavators.

Campaign Mission:

• Raise awareness about the South Carolina 811 service
• Help excavators avoid digging around underground utilities
• Provide a website with more information at sc811.com/excavators.
