Dig Safely at UB

Dig Safely at UB

The University at Buffalo (UB) is a member of Dig Safety New York and fully endorses their program for all excavation work on UB property regardless of location. An Excavation Marking & Dig Safe procedure for all such work is available to provide guidance to ensure compliance with New York State Code Rule 753 (16 NYCCR 753). This procedure applies to all personnel who perform excavation on any UB property including UB personnel responsible for utility marking coordination and actual field marking activities. Although most utilities on the North and South campuses will be marked by UB Facilities personnel, DO NOT subvert this process by contacting marking personnel directly except in the case of emergencies.
