Line Locating and Marking

Course Overview

Every day, people rely on hidden networks of underground utilities to power homes, deliver clean water, carry communications, and transport energy. While burying infrastructure keeps communities safe and organized, it also means that excavation work, whether digging a trench, planting a tree, or starting a major construction project can expose workers and the public to serious risks if utilities are struck.

This course provides a detailed introduction to utility line locating and marking procedures. Learners will gain the skills to recognize buried facilities, understand the one-call process, and use safe digging practices to avoid costly and hazardous incidents. Real-world scenarios, troubleshooting strategies, and safety guidelines help reinforce key lessons and ensure compliance with Canadian regulations.
