Communications Committee

description for CC . Reporters HandThe Communications Committee works to develop consistent messaging to promote the efficient construction and safe operation of natural gas pipelines as well as the use of natural gas. The committee educates the public, regulators, legislators and other stakeholders, including first responders and safety advocates, about the critical role pipelines play in providing natural gas to consumers. The committee also promotes public awareness and safety information about pipelines through education campaigns on Dig Safe (811), first responder and public outreach, and the implementation of the Pipeline and Informed Planning Alliance (PIPA).

  • Call 811 – Know What’s below, call before you dig:

    http://www.call811.com/

    Building a deck? Planting a tree? Installing a mailbox? 811 is the toll-free number you should call before you begin any digging project. The national "Call Before You Dig" number, 811, was created to help protect you from unintentionally hitting underground utility lines while working on digging projects. Every digging job requires a call – 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. Whether you are a homeowner or a professional excavator, one call to 811 gets your underground utility lines marked for FREE.
