KENTUCKY 811 is a non-profit statewide utility notification service that provides a communication link between contractors, homeowners, or anyone else engaging in excavating activities and our members. We offer a one point contact to reach our members to notify them of your proposed excavation for the locating and marking of their underground facilities. KENTUCKY 811 will notify only member utilities; contact of non-member utilities is the responsibility of the excavator or person doing the digging.
The One-Call System will not mark private or non-member utilities. The utility locating companies notified by your state One-Call system will locate and mark only primary public utilities, so it's up to you to keep track of what else is on your own property.
Private Utilities are the buried lines after the meter or main lines. If you have a curbside meter then your property will not get marked by One-Call locators. Other buried utilities that generally are not marked by One-Call include but are not limited to: sewer lines, private lighting, sprinklers, fire mains, secondary electric lines to detached garages, and septic lines.
