Great turnout at this week's APACT meetings in Demopolis, Jackson, and Mobile, where Alabama 811 partnered with APERI (Alabama Pipeline Emergency Response Initiative) and Paradigm to educate underground utility operators and excavators on safe digging practices and emergency response procedures. It was an incredible opportunity to connect with industry professionals and reinforce the importance of protecting Alabama’s underground infrastructure. By working together, we can prevent damages, safeguard lives, and ensure safer excavation practices across the state. Thank you to all who attended and helped make this event a success! #SafetyFirst #ExcavationSafety #UtilityProtection #Alabama811 #APERI

Alabama 811 is attending and displaying at the Alabama Natural Gas Association Fall Workshop. Damage Prevention Coordinators Kim Covan and Kara Jones are spending a few days interacting with many of Alabama's gas and pipeline operators.

Did you know that summer has one of the highest rates of reported underground utility damages? Today is 8/11 Day, serving as a reminder to call 811 before digging to avoid damages to underground utilities that can cause expensive repairs or even injury and death.

On Sunday, please join Alabama 811 in celebrating 8/11 Day (Aug. 11), a reminder for homeowners and professionals to contact 811 to have underground utilities marked before digging projects. Digging without contacting 811 first is not only against the law, but it also continues to be the number one cause of damages to underground utilities each year. Share the safe digging message with colleagues and friends this 8/11 Day to help keep communities safe! #811BeforeYouDig #811Day #call811
