Miss Utility of Virginia
Miss Utility is the free "one call" Virginia information exchange center for excavators, contractors and property owners planning any kind of excavation or digging. The Miss Utility center notifies all utility providers of upcoming excavation work so they can locate and mark their underground facilities in that area before digging begins.
Marking those facilities that are not readily visible can prevent:
- Damage to underground utility lines
- Damage to property
- Injuries
- Disruption of service
Additional Information
For additional information on the Miss Utility program, please visit the official Miss Utility website. For more information on the Underground Utility Damage Prevention Act (sometimes referred to as the "Miss Utility Law") please visit the Virginia State Corporation Commission website.
