Why are there utility flags on my road or property?
These flags are identifying where the communication / cable company, electric, gas,
sewer, or water facility apparatus is located underground. All contractors and property owners
who excavate a property are required to call the New Jersey One-Call Center at 800-272-1000 to request the utilities be marked. Excavation includes activities such as building construction, road repair, fence installation, landscaping, etc.
