A summer safety tip-always contact JULIE prior to any digging activities in Illinois. Even a small backyard project can be dangerous if you don't know the location of buried utilities. You can enter your locate request using E-Request at illinois1call.com or simply call 811. Please contact JULIE two working days before you begin your digging project.
