This bill amends section 76-2308 of the One-Call Notification System Act in Nebraska to redefine the term "excavation." The revised definition now includes various activities such as grading, trenching, and digging, while explicitly excluding certain activities from the definition. Notably, the bill adds a new exemption for hand digging by telecommunications, community antenna television, or broadband service providers to a depth not exceeding eighteen inches for the purpose of connecting customers to their networks.

Additionally, the bill removes the previous exemption related to hand digging around the base of a pole for inspection and maintenance purposes. The original section 76-2308 is repealed, indicating a complete replacement of the previous legal language with the newly defined terms and conditions.
