August 11, National 811 Day
Dig with CARE Public Service Announcement
Public Service Announcement Captioning:
Two men stand and deliver a public service announcement regarding underground damage
prevention. A billboard displays the "C.A.R.E." prevention message.
Voice 1: Hi. I'm Frank Hudik.
Voice 2: And I'm Stephen Thomas
Frank: And we're with the Virginia State Corporation Commission.
Stephen: August 11th is the nationally recognized day to remind everyone the importance
of always calling 811 before you dig, regardless of whether your project is big or
small.
Frank: You know, damaging an underground utility line can cause far-reaching consequences,
from the loss of services we depend upon every day to serious injury or worse.
So, Dig with Care.
Stephen: CARE means:
Frank: Call Miss Utility at 811 before you dig;
Stephen: Allow required time for marking;
Frank: Respect the marks;
Stephen: and Excavate carefully.
