North Dakota One Call
Planting a tree? Digging a hole for a mailbox? Installing a fence? There are a number of utility lines buried on your property - electric, telephone, gas or propane, water, sewer, and cable tv. Prior to completing any work make sure to call North Dakota One Call at 811 to make sure that you don't run into any underground utilities. If you have any questions regarding the One Call procedure, or need information before making the call, visit North Dakota One Call.
It's free, it's simple, and it's the law!
