April is safe digging month and in this episode of Behind the Meter, we’re joined by special guest Dave Chislea, the Director of the Gas Safety & Operations Division at the MPSC, to dig into a critical safety topic—how to safely excavate in and around your home without damaging buried utility lines. Whether you're planting a tree, installing a fence, or tackling a backyard renovation, it's essential to know what's underground before you break ground. Dave shares expert insight on the importance of calling 811 before you dig, the potential dangers of striking underground utilities, and the steps every homeowner should take to ensure a safe and legal dig. Tune in to learn how a simple call can prevent costly damage, serious injury, and service outages.
