| South Jersey Gas Recognizes 8th Annual Safe Digging Month | |

Folsom, NJ - This April marks the 8th annual National Safe Digging Month, reminding New Jersey residents to follow the law and always call 811 at least three days before starting any digging project. National Safe Digging Month is formally recognized by the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate, and has traditionally earned the support from nearly every state governor across the country.
The national "Call Before You Dig" number, 8-1-1, is a free hotline created to help protect people from unintentionally hitting underground utility lines while working on excavation projects. People digging often make risky assumptions about whether or not they should get their utility lines marked due to concerns about project delays, costs and previous calls about other projects. These assumptions could be life-threatening.
"As April traditionally starts the digging season, we take the opportunity to remind homeowners and companies alike that it's the law to call 811 before they begin any digging projects," said Jeffrey E. DuBois, president of South Jersey Gas.
Every digging job requires this free call for a mark out - even small projects like planting trees or shrubs. If you hit an underground utility line while digging, you can harm yourself or those around you, disrupt service to an entire neighborhood and potentially be responsible for fines and repair costs.
