Anyone digging in North Dakota must call before digging. The person who is doing the work is responsible for calling NDOC. If the owner contracts with a professional excavator to do the excavation, then the professional excavator is responsible for calling NDOC.

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.
