Arizona 811, formerly known as Arizona Blue Stake, is the one-call notification center in Tempe, AZ that helps prevent accidents and damages caused by underground utility strikes. They provide a platform for homeowners, professional excavators, facility owners, operators, landlords, and project designers to request utility marking services before digging. Landlords are required by Arizona law to register with Arizona 811 and respond to excavators within 10 working days.
Arizona 811 does not provide utility marking services themselves, but they process requests and coordinate with underground facility operators who send qualified personnel called Locators to mark the utilities. Locators must respond within two working days, and if there is a delay, a priority request can be made. The markings include offset markings on nearby permanent surfaces to indicate the distance and direction of the underground utilities from the dig site, ensuring safety and preventing damage.
