The Miss Utility of Virginia Web Ticket Entry application allows excavators and contractors who enter an average of five tickets per week to process Normal, Remark, and Update tickets online without having to call 811. The free training class teaches how to enter an accurate locate request and perform a detailed ticket search, while also highlighting notification requirements of Virginia’s Damage Prevention Act. Participants will learn how to log into the application, describe the specific location of proposed excavation or demolition, and map the dig site polygon in order to notify utility operators. Locating the dig site utilizing the various mapping tools will be demonstrated through multiple examples.
