The House Resolution introduced by various representatives designates April 2025 as "Pennsylvania 8-1-1 Safe Digging Month." This initiative aims to raise awareness about the importance of safe digging practices to prevent damage to underground utility lines, protect workers, and minimize environmental pollution. The resolution highlights the role of the Pennsylvania One Call System, which has been operational for over 50 years, in facilitating safe excavation by providing a one-call notification service that alerts excavators about potential hazards related to underground utilities.

The resolution encourages all excavators and homeowners in Pennsylvania to utilize the 8-1-1 service before commencing any digging activities, emphasizing the need to "Know What's Below" to avoid injuries and costly damages. It also reminds excavators of the legal requirement to provide three business days' notice before digging. The resolution reflects the state's commitment to promoting safety and environmental protection in the context of ongoing economic development and infrastructure projects.
