UNCC acts as a communication center between excavators and underground facility operators by notifying the city utility for water and sewer line locations as well as the appropriate companies for gas and electric, phone and cable. They will also advise you if you need to contact anyone else.
Unless it's an emergency situation, you must allow 48 hours response time
