Locate Requests will be processed for the 3 working day notice (72 hours) by which South Carolina State Law Requires at the time the ticket has been processed by a SC811 Staff Person.

The South Carolina State Law states that excavators are to give a 3 working day notice (72 hours), excluding weekends and holidays, for the locators to mark the area. You will receive an electronic mail message stating when you are legally free to proceed with the digging work and what members SC811 will be notified for you in that area. Any utilities SC811 does not notify, you will be responsible for contacting them directly. From the SC State Law - Section 58-35-80: For the purposes of this section the approximate location of underground utilities is defined as a "strip of land at least five feet wide, but not wider than the width of the utility plus two and one-half feet on either side of the utility." Once SC811 has processed the locate request ticket; the locate request ticket will be good for 15 working days from the date of the 3 working day notice (72 hours).

REQUIRED FIELDS NOTICE: Before submitting, Locate Request Tickets will not be processed if the following items are not filled: Phone Number, Your Name, Company Address, Company City, Company State, Company Zip Code, E-mail Address, Type of Work, County, City, Street Name, Nearest Intersecting Street, and Work is Done by.
