EXCAVATORS/CONTRACTORS

As an excavator or contractor, you play an important role in our efforts to keep citizens safe. By law, excavators and contractors working in the five boroughs of New York City and Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island must contact DigNet by phone, 1-800-272-4480 or 811, or via ITIC at least two working days before beginning any mechanized digging or excavation work.

This section of our Web site features information specifically for excavators and contractors, including details about ITIC, frequently asked questions, Code Rule 753 highlights, a glossary of terms and more.

If you have a question or concern that is not addressed in this section, please email us at nyitic@occinc.com.
