40 Agreed to a meeting as proposed by excavator. Code 40 shall be used in response to a meeting notice when the operator/locator agrees to a meeting at the specific time and location proposed by the excavator. The meeting must take place by 7:00 a.m. on the third working day following the meeting notice.
41 Mutually agreed to alternative meeting time and location. Code 41 shall be used when an operator/locator is unable to attend a meeting as proposed by the excavator. The operator/locator shall set up a mutually agreeable time and location to meet no later than 7:00 AM on the third working day following the meeting notice. Both excavator and operator/locator are encouraged to document the arrangements.
50 Installation records, maps or other documents have been provided. Code 50 shall be used in response to a designer ticket when the designer does not request field markings to be placed. The information provided by the operator/locator may include, but is not limited to, maps, surveys, installation records, as-built records, or other means.

70 Critical facility marked. In case of dredging, the approximate horizontal location of the utility line has been identified. Locator or utility operator shall notify directly the person listed as the field contact on the applicable Miss Utility Ticket prior to posting Code 70 to the Excavator-Operator Information Exchange System. Operator must be present during dredging or other forms of excavation operations. Code 70 shall only be used when the operator’s presence is necessary during dredging or other forms of excavation operations. In the case of dredging, an acceptable means of identifying and or marking the approximate horizontal location of the underground utility line must be determined and that information must be provided to the person intending to dredge. For other forms of excavation, the underground utility line(s) shall be marked. When an operator/locator responds to a ticket with a code 70, it shall be the operator/locator’s responsibility to provide the excavator/dredger with the appropriate name and preferred contact information, i.e. telephone number, facsimile (“Fax”) number, email address and or mailing address, for the excavator/dredger to use to inform the operator of the date and time when the dredging or other forms of excavation operations will commence. Operator must be present during such operations.
71 Critical facility not marked; locator or utility operator must contact excavator and must be present during excavation. Code 71 shall only be used when the operator’s presence is necessary during the excavation due to the fact that the underground utility line is of such importance to national security that marking it in accordance with the Underground Utility Damage Prevention Act is not appropriate. When an operator/locator responds to a ticket with code 71, it shall be the locator/operator’s responsibility to provide the excavator with the appropriate name and contact information for the excavator to use to inform the operator of the date and time when excavation will commence. Operator must be present during excavation.
80 The status of the utility line has been determined to be abandoned. Code 80 shall be used by an operator when the operator has determined the status of a utility line is abandoned.
81 Mutually agreed to an alternative time to determine if the utility line is abandoned. Code 81 shall be used when an excavator and operator have negotiated a mutually agreeable time period in excess of 27 hours for the operator to provide information relative to an abandoned utility line if site conditions prohibit the operator from making such a determination or extraordinary circumstances exist. The operator shall notify the excavator of the date and time when the status of the utility line will be determined. However, the deferral to determine the status of the utility line shall be no longer than 96 hours from 7 a.m. on the next working day following the excavator's additional notice to the notification center.
82 The utility line in question does not belong to this operator. Code 82 shall be used when an operator has determined that the alleged abandoned utility line is not owned by that operator.
90 Locator could not gain access to property; locator will contact excavator. When an operator/locator responds to a ticket with code 90, it shall be the operator/locator’s responsibility to contact and inform the excavator of their inability to gain access to the property to mark the area of excavation. The operator/locator must provide the name of the excavator’s representative that they contacted to VUPS’ Positive Response System with the use of Code 90. It shall be the excavator’s responsibility to make the property accessible to the operator/locator and call a new ticket for those operators who initially responded to the ticket with a code 90, if necessary.
91 Incorrect address information; please call Miss Utility and provide correct information. Code 91 shall be used when the excavator has provided incorrect address information to the notification center. The operator/locator shall make a reasonable attempt to contact the excavator to verify the address information before the placement of this code. It shall be the excavator’s responsibility to verify the address information and call the notification center to request a new ticket with the correct information.
93 Scope of work is too large; please call Miss Utility to reschedule. Code 93 shall be used when the area of proposed excavation exceeds the limits of a work area as defined in § 56-265.17 F. It shall be the excavator’s responsibility to call the notification center and request a new ticket or tickets that complies with § 56-265.17 F.
94 Location of proposed work is unclear; please call Miss Utility and provide the specific location on a new ticket. Code 94 shall be used when the operator/locator is unable to determine the area of proposed excavation according to the specific location delineated on the ticket. The operator/locator must make a reasonable attempt to contact the excavator to clarify the specific location of where the excavation is planned. It shall be the excavator's responsibility to call the notification center and request a new ticket with a specific location of proposed excavation if the original area is insufficient.
96 No response required from this terminal. Code 96 shall be used if no response is required from a specific terminal ID code. If an operator has multiple terminal codes that overlap, they may choose to use Code 96 to display that a certain terminal is not responding. If a ticket is cancelled, the operator/locator shall use this code to respond. (VUPS will not post responses on a cancelled ticket to the Positive Response system.) If a ticket is transmitted to an operator/locator’s terminal, but field markings are performed by another person under contract with the operator, code 96 may be used by the operator/locator to convey that they will not respond. The person responsible for marking the utility line is required¹ to update to the positive response system with the current marking status. Operators/locators are encouraged to document the reason that no response was required.
97 Extraordinary circumstances exist. Code 97 is only used in the event that extraordinary circumstances exist. These circumstances may include: floods, snow, ice storms, tornadoes, earthquakes, other natural disasters, blackouts, and massive computer network failures.

In addition to Locator Response Codes entered by Miss Utility’s member operators or their contract locators, the Positive Response System generates the following automated responses when applicable:

000 No Response. This is an automated place holder generated by Miss Utility's Positive Response System that indicates the member operator has not yet responded and the ticket's due by date and time has not yet passed. Once a response is posted by the member operator or the due by date and time has passed, the code is removed.

888 Ticket Has Been Cancelled. This is an automated response generated by Miss Utility's Positive Response System when a ticket is cancelled by the person who requested it. Once this response is posted, the system will not accept any further response from any member operator or their contract locator.

999 Has Not Responded. This is an automated response generated by Miss Utility's Positive Response System for Normal, Update, Remark, Designer and Meeting tickets immediately after the due by date and time has passed and a member operator or its contract locator has failed to post a response code to the Positive Response System. A “No Show” ticket is transmitted by Miss Utility to the member operator as the response 999 is posted to the system.
