HG Energy is a member of Miss Utility of West Virginia (WV811), the state’s underground facility protection organization. In order to protect the public as well as our facilities, we at HG encourage you to “Call before you dig” so that HG and other owners of underground facilities can come out and mark the location of buried facilities before excavation is begun. As mandated by federal law, you can simply dial 811 anywhere, anytime for this free service. State law requires 48 hour notice be made to WV811 prior to excavation. Persons who fail to comply with this state law can be charged with a misdemeanor and can be fined as much as $5,000. We encourage you to call before you dig. Public and personal safety is a key principle of HG Energy.
