DIGGING? CALL BEFORE YOU DIG

USE WHITE FLAGS TO MARK YOUR DIG SITE

When the excavation site cannot be clearly and adequately  identified on the locate ticket, the excavator is encouraged to designate the area of  excavation with white paint, flags and/or stakes prior to the arrival of the utility locator.

Pre-marking allows the excavators to accurately communicate to the facility owners/operators or their locator where the excavation is to occur.

When you call Kansas One Call, tell the operator that the area  has been white lined. They will put that information on the locate ticket to inform the locator that the area has been white-lined. This form of communication greatly increases  timely locates and reduces marking areas of a large locate request, lots, mobile home/business parks, and large land-masses in rural areas.

White flags can be purchased through Kansas One-Call by calling  316/687-2102 or while you're phoning in your locate request. They cost $5.00 for a bundle of a hundred.
