Utility Locates
Know what's below before you dig.
Before an excavation is begun, gas, electrical and other services in and near the area shall be accurately located and marked. USL-1 helps you obey the law and protect your crew, your site, and the infrastructure around it.
Overview
Utility Locates
Utility location is the procedure of discovering, marking and labeling utilities that are located underground — hydro, natural gas, cables, stop and street lights, water mains, and more.
- Attention homeowners: we recommend the party responsible for excavation obtains the locate in their name.
- Ontario One Call alone does not guarantee all utilities are found — private utilities also need to be located.
- USL-1 notifies every known utility in your work zone and delivers a complete public + private locate package.
