    IPL reminds customers to Call 8-1-1 Before You Dig

    National 811 Day reminds Hoosiers to follow safe digging practices IPL reminds customers to Call 8-1-1 Before You Dig

    INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — Indianapolis Power & Light Company (IPL), a subsidiary of The AES Corporation (NYSE: AES), wants to remind customers that today is National 811 Day, and we encourage all customers to put safety first and call 8-1-1 at least two full business days ahead of your scheduled start. 

    To ensure safety, you want to be sure you know where electrical, gas and other utility lines are located on your property. Not only will doing so avoid headaches and make your job easier, but you will steer clear of potential utility outages, repair costs and serious or even fatal injuries.

    IPL is a member of the Indiana Underground Plant Protection Service (IUPPS), a free state-wide service that will notify your utility companies to send representatives to the site and clearly mark the location of their underground lines and pipes. If you do not complete your digging or construction projects within 10 business days after the initial marking, you will need to call back to have the utility lines remarked for verification.

    Additionally, please visit IPLpower.com to download our Right Tree Right Place brochure and look for tips to plant smart with the utilities in mind.
