Gov. Reynolds digs this
Gov. Kim Reynolds planned to sign a proclamation today encouraging homeowners to call 811 before digging. The Common Ground Alliance reports that an underground utility line is damaged every nine minutes. Iowaonecall.com also provides information on how to give notice of planned digging. Iowa law requires at least 48 hours’ notice before breaking ground (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays). Facility operators mark lines. You shouldn’t dig within 18 inches of the paint or flags.
