JULIE
http://www.illinois1call.com/
Illinois law requires all persons digging, regardless of the depth of the
project, to call JULIE at 1-800-892-0123 at least 48 hours (two working days)
prior to the start of excavation and to begin that excavation project within 14
calendar days from calling JULIE. (The 48 hour notice does not include
Saturdays, Sundays or holidays.) Failure to contact JULIE prior to excavation in
accordance with the law can carry penalties from $200 up to $5,000 for each
separate offense. The Illinois Commerce Commission is the enforcement body for
the law, not JULIE.
JULIE Enforcement
http://www.icc.state.il.us/rl/julie.aspx
On July 27th, 2001 , Governor Ryan signed House Bill 2138 (Public Act
92-0179) revising the Illinois Underground Utility Facilities Damage Prevention
Act. The Act outlines the responsibilities of underground of utility facility
operators and excavators with regard to notifying the State-Wide One-Call Notice
System (otherwise known as "JULIE"), marking the underground utility facilities,
and excavating near utility facilities. One of the revisions to the Act was to
make the Illinois Commerce Commission responsible for enforcement of violations
of the Act.
