As always, Louisiana 811 is here to serve you. If you are an excavator, we want to help educate you on Louisiana’s dig laws and safe excavation practices. We can provide training to help excavators submit and manage dig tickets online more efficiently. We’d like to provide you with 811 material for you to use on company equipment and vehicles so that you can help spread 811 awareness. Of course, this is a free service to help protect you. To our member utility and pipeline companies, please let
us know how we can serve you. We are here to help solve any of your problems regarding 811. Whether it’s your mapping, managing the dig tickets that you receive in Locator Ticket Management, or something else, please let us know how we can help you.
Also, we encourage you to get involved with your local Utility Coordinating Council meetings to discuss projects occurring in your area so that all stakeholders can coordinate together to work more safely and efficiently. Reach out to us, and we’ll connect you with your local UCC Chairperson.
Whether you prefer meeting in-person or virtually, we are here for you to help with your needs.
