所有这些活动,还有更多 需要书面同意 from the pipeline operator to ensure the continued integrity and safe operation of the pipeline.

常见问题
I know where the pipeline is, do I still need to make a One-Call?
You can never be sure where underground utilities are unless they have been marked by a professional. Utilities can shift from erosion or natural forces or new ones may have been installed without your knowledge. Using the free One-Call service allows you to conduct your work safely.
我如何联络本地的一次通话服务?
Luckily there are resources to help you reach your local service easily. 在加拿大,你可以参观 www.ClickBeforeYouDig.com 查找本地的一站式服务, as well as other useful safe-digging rules and regulations in your province. In the U.S. 您可以拨打811或访问 www.call811.com 联系你所在州的医疗机构.
我什么时候需要打一个电话?
You need to make a locate request anytime you are disturbing the ground. This includes digging, piling material, paving or even driving equipment over a right-of-way. Any action that could impact something below the surface counts as ground disturbance.
什么是交叉协议?
A crossing agreement is an agreement between you and the pipeline operator that allows you to conduct your work safely with the permission and understanding of the pipeline operator. Any changes to your work need to also be approved to ensure your safety.
我如何知道我是否需要交叉协议?
If you plan to do any work on a right-of-way or access the right-of-way while conducting your work, there’s a good chance you need a crossing agreement. 为了确定, you can either make a One-Call and wait for the pipeline operator to contact you, or you can contact the pipeline operator directly through their crossings team. 联系信息可在此页找到.
什么是“订明面积”?
The prescribed area is the area that extends 30 metres on either side of the pipeline centerline. Ground disturbance within this area requires written consent.
