Electricity provides comfort and convenience to our lives, but it demands care and respect.  We urge you to play it safe around electricity. 

Call Before You Dig

Whether you are planning construction, gardening, landscaping, fencing or any type of digging around your home, you must call Gopher State One Call (GSOC) to locate buried electric, telephone, cable, water and sewer lines.  Coming in contact with utility lines can be extremely dangerous or fatal and repairs to damaged lines can be costly. 

It is the law that anyone excavating at your site must notify Gopher State One Call (GSOC) so that underground electric, telephone, cable, sewer and water lines can be marked on or near your property before any digging begins.  A 48-hour notice, not including weekends, is required. 

Grand Marais Public Utilities will not locate any of our facilities until we have been contacted by GSOC.

Gopher One State Call    1-800-252-1166 Monday - Friday (except holidays) 7:00 a.m. - 5 p.m.
