Importance of Underground Utility Line Detection
When it comes to any digging project, whether you're planning to build a new structure, planting trees, or even putting up a fence, it is crucial to prioritize safety by calling JULIE (Joint Utility Locating Information for Excavators) before you start. Understanding the importance of underground utility line detection can save you from accidents, costly damages, and disruption of vital services.
Preventing Accidents and Injuries
Unmarked or damaged utility lines buried underground pose serious risks to your safety and those around you. Accidental hits on gas, water, electric, or communication lines can lead to explosions, fires, electrocutions, and even fatalities. By contacting JULIE, professional locators will mark the location of utility lines, helping you avoid potentially hazardous situations.
Protecting Infrastructure
Underground utility lines are a critical part of our infrastructure. Trenching or digging without knowing their exact locations can cause severe damages that disrupt services not only for you but also for your entire community. Damaged lines can lead to service outages, water contamination, disrupted communications, and expensive repairs. Calling JULIE ensures that all utility lines are located and protected during any excavation.
Preventing Costly Damages
Repairing damaged utility lines can be a significant financial burden. Repair costs, fines, and penalties can quickly add up, causing unnecessary expenses. By utilizing JULIE's free service, you can prevent these expenses by avoiding accidental damage altogether. It's a cost-effective solution that saves you money and helps maintain the integrity of underground infrastructure.
