Monday, April 1, 2024

LAS VEGAS, April 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- National Safe Digging Month, observed annually in April when spring has sprung and peak digging season begins, is the perfect time to remind the public about the importance of calling 811 before beginning any digging project. Calling 811 and getting lines marked before you dig is free and can prevent avoidable damages to underground utility lines that can be dangerous for you and our communities. 

Key Points: 
  • National data continually shows that the number one cause of damage to underground utility lines is failure to call 811 to have the lines marked before digging.
  • In 2023, close to 30 percent of Southwest Gas' companywide damages were due to homeowners and contractors not calling 811 before excavation.
  • "Southwest Gas is committed to the safe and reliable delivery of natural gas service to our customers and the communities we serve," said Laura Nelson, Vice President of Sustainability and External Affairs.
  • Southwest Gas reminds anyone who thinks they may have damaged an underground natural gas line or suspects a natural gas leak, even if they're not a natural gas customer, to leave the area immediately and call 911 and Southwest Gas at 877-860-6020.
