Planning on digging in or around Columbia SC?

By law you must call Palmetto Utility Protection Service (P.U.P.S.) by dialing 811 locally, or call toll free at 1-888-721-7877, between the hours of 7:30 AM - 5:30 PM Monday-Friday. You may access them online at http://www.sc1pups.org/. You must contact them 72 hours prior to digging (excluding weekends and holidays) so that they can mark all of your utility lines. They will mark the ground with spray paint using the color coding below:

Red paint indicates- Electric Power Lines, Cables, Conduit and Lightning Cables

Yellow indicates- Gas, Oil, Steam, Petroleum, or Gaseous Materials

Orange indicates- Communication, Alarm, or Signal Lines, Cables or Conduit


Blue indicates- Water, Irrigation, and Slurry Lines


Green indicates- Sewers and Drain Lines


Pink indicates- Temporary Survey Markings


White indicates- Proposed Excavations

*This is a free service and should be done prior to any excavation job.
