Private Utilities
After submitting a locate request, Kentucky 811 will send a notice to member utilities that own facilities in the area of your dig site. You are responsible for contacting non-members and having any private lines at your dig site marked. Private utilities may include lawn sprinkler systems, security lighting, or natural gas grills. A private locator must be hired to mark private lines.
A good general rule of thumb is if the utility runs from the street to the meter, it will be marked. If the utility is installed from the meter to another location on the property, it will not be marked.
