Telecommunication Lines

Ontario Regulation 213/91: Construction Projects states the following about precautions to be done before excavation:

the employer excavating shall ensure that all gas, electrical and other services in and near the area to be excavated are located and marked.

Telecommunication lines are used to connect telephone network, internet service, radio broadcasting system, and computer network. One type of telecommunication lines is the Fiber Optics underground utility line, and it is very important to locate such lines before excavation as replacing a fiber optic line takes time and tens of thousands of dollars. The best way to eliminate this risk is to request a utility locate before you commence your work. This will give you the clearance you need to have before starting any digging in the intended area of construction. And as the old saying goes, CALL BEFORE YOU DIG!
