This is National Safe Digging Month and it’s important to know who to call before you do any digging projects in your yard. The first thing to remember is call 8-1-1, or submit a request to Kansas Gas Service online at kansasonecall.com two full days before your project starts. Public Relations Manager for Kansas Gas, Dawn Tripp with some tips once the lines are marked:
