Welcome to the Nebraska One Call Statewide Notification Center
Digger’s Hotline of Nebraska
|
In 1994, the Nebraska Legislature passed a law called The One-Call Notification System Act. It can be found in the Revised Statutes of Nebraska from Sections 76-2301 to 76-2330. The law states that everyone who excavates or disturbs the surface of the ground in the State of Nebraska, must first contact Digger’s Hotline 2 business days in advance to have all underground utilities located. This legislation includes, but is not limited too: Contractors, homeowners and personal property owners.
Similar "Call Before you Dig" Legislation is found across the United States, however, the individual laws vary on a State by State basis. Due to the variance of the individual State Laws, we at Digger’s Hotline of Nebraska encourage you to visit the "State Law" link found on this website to review the Nebraska Statutes. Also available, at no cost, is the Nebraska Digger’s Manual. The information contained in this manual will help you understand the Nebraska One Call Law and the operation of Digger’s Hotline of Nebraska. To request copies of the Nebraska Digger’s Manual please visit our promotional items link on this website.

"Tricks of the Trade" for Digging in Nebraska:
|
 WHITE LINE! You are encouraged to mark your excavation site with white flags or paint prior to having the area located. White marking flags are available from Digger’s upon request. Please visit Promotional Items under the "Contact Us" link to request the flags at no cost.
GPS COORDINATES: When placing a request with GPS Coordinates, the Datum setup on the GPS device must be in NAD83 Format
ONLINE LOCATE REQUESTS: To ensure speed and accuracy of processing, you are encouraged to place your requests online, 24 hours a day. Digger’s offers 2 options for online entry:
1. Select the Contractor or Homeowner link found above. Your request will be processed and emailed back to you.
OR
2. Register to use our Irth-Internet entry program - NITES. This will allow you to process and map your own locate requests. Contact our Administrative Offices at 402-330-1866 to receive your user ID.
We look forward to working with you in the combined commitment of damage prevention, public safety and safe digging! Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or need additional information. Digger’s Hotline of Nebraska is owned and operated by Consolidated Utility Services, Inc.
