UDig NY is the place where all safe digging in Upstate New York starts. As the

link between you and the member facility operators, UDig NY utilizes a contact

center and industry-leading software – Exactix – to receive and transmit

notifications of intent to dig in the form of underground utility location requests.

UDig NY provides you with the tools to place and manage your location requests

24/7/365. UDig NY serves Upstate New York: the geographic region of New York

State north of the New York City metropolitan area. New York City and Long Island

are covered by New York 811.

Anyone planning a digging project in Upstate New York should protect

themselves and their community by visiting UDigNY.org or by calling 811 to place a

location request. Location requests are free and should be placed at least two

business days, but not more than 10 days, before beginning an excavation project.

In addition to location request management, UDig NY provides the Certified

Excavator in Safe Digging Best Practices (CEP) program, which is available online

and at a variety of in-person events throughout the year. The CEP is the industry

standard for excavation safety education in Upstate New York and meets the

requirement under New York State law for anyone doing excavation work for a

local government or for a facility operator to complete a training and education

program.

UDig NY also hosts the annual Damage Prevention Conference & Expo, a free

conference open to excavators, utility operators, public officials, and other

professionals.
