Digline, Inc.

Digline, Inc. runs Idaho DigLine, the one-number service that excavators use to ask utility owners to mark buried lines before digging. The marking is provided by the local utility companies that own the lines.

What Digline, Inc. does

• Locate requests: excavators give notice of planned digging between two and ten business days before work starts, so owners can mark their lines.
• Utility membership: utility owners join to receive locate notifications in line with Idaho statute.
• Excavation guidance: pre-marking the dig path, hand digging close to marked lines and keeping marks in place.
• Homeowner information: a homeowner's guide, a utility colour code and details of private lines and private locators.
• Online requests: web ticket help and FAQs for general users and members.

Who it works with

Professional excavators, businesses and volunteer groups doing excavation, homeowners digging on their own property, planners and engineers, and utility owners.
