The whole range of underground work
A city that covers this much ground holds every type of underground job, and requests can come from any part of it:
Downtown and dense neighborhoods
Tight sites, busy streets and crowded utility corridors call for careful locating, hydro excavation to expose existing lines, and directional drilling where a street or a plaza cannot be opened.
Industrial and logistics areas
Large buildings need water and fire services, sanitary and storm systems sized for their roofs and yards, and conduit for heavy loads. Their pits and drains can be cleaned with a vacuum truck.
Residential areas
Water services, sewer laterals and storm connections fail one house at a time, and each repair is planned to reach the line with as little disturbance to the yard or drive as possible.
New development
Subdivisions and commercial sites need complete underground packages, built in order and inspected by each system owner.
Whatever the job, the steps are the same: an Indiana 811 locate, exposure of nearby lines, excavation or drilling, installation or repair, testing where required, and restoration.
Indiana 811 before excavation
Indiana 811 is the state's call-before-you-dig center under Indiana Code chapter 8-1-26. Section 8-1-26-16 requires two full working days of notice at minimum, given no earlier than 10 calendar days before digging, and keeps a ticket valid for 20 calendar days. Work in public streets also follows the right-of-way owner's conditions.
