ClickBeforeYouDig is a Best Practice
  
Almost 10 years ago, Alberta One-Call Corporation adopted ClickBeforeYouDig as its primary call-to-action. Everything from online travel arrangements, banking and grocery shopping had already shifted away from the phone, and while we continued to accept locate requests by fax and phone, the ClickBeforeYouDig service was available and active 24-7-365. At the time, promoting the online process was considered more a matter of convenience but it was — and is — much more than that.

Introducing Canada’s only damage prevention podcast
  
 

We talk a lot about different aspects of damage prevention. Well actually, we write a lot about them. We create booklets and textbooks, and project binders, and lots and lots of PowerPoint slides. We give presentations and workshops, and yes there are some excellent videos. For the first time in Canada, we’re just “talking” about damage prevention. Talking in the format of a podcast.

Contact Lens
As we gaze into the distance, squinting against the bright April sunlight to try and discern what lies ahead, we steel ourselves against the challenges that are rapidly approaching. A feeling of mixed fear and eager hope washes over us, an electric jolt of anxious expectation and nervous energy. May approaches quickly, and April offers us but just a small taste of what lies ahead.

There is no Charge for Locating and Marking Buried Assets
  
Since Alberta One-Call Corporation began providing services, there’s been a misconception that the crews locating and marking buried utilities across Alberta are our employees. They’re not. Along with that misconception, there is also the belief that you have to pay for locating and marking buried facilities on your property after you’ve made a locate request to AOC. That’s also incorrect.
