Safety – Can Lawn Be Mowed After Utilities Are Marked by 811?

safetyUtilities

I had 811 mark my utility lines. They were here today.They marked with both spraypaint and flags.

The markings are valid per their rules for 30 days. It will be about 2 weeks before I can get the landscaping work done. In the mean time is it OK to mow the spraypainted marks?

Best Answer

NO! Do not disturb the markings enough to make them disappear. Mow around the markings.
