Re: Having a Cable Line Removed

Jack in VA, "Miss Utility" does NOT do utility marking. We run the Virginia 811 or Miss Utility of Virginia call center, we are merely an information center who takes information from excavators who plan to dig and pass it along to utilities in that area. The utilities or contract locators that they hire are the ones who do the marking.

Don't forget to call 811 before you dig, it is a free call and a free service!

To us homeowners it's Miss Utility. Someone comes out and locates all underground wiring. I don't care who contacts who or who contracts who, just as long as it gets marked. It's a very well run service with the lines marked in a very quick manner.

you miss the point, each utility is still responsible for making sure their facilities are marked out.

Most jurisdictions have some sort of call-before-you-dig (811) system.

For the purpose of underground marking, cable is considered utility. If you have any doubts about this, dig up a fiber optic line belonging to the cable company and compare the bill for fixing it to the bill for fixing a telco fiber line.

Around here, the gas company buries the cable service during large development builds.

I stand corrected. I meant each "entity".
