3.10 Printed Ticket Recall

Practice Statement:

The 811 center can provide a printed copy of any ticket for a period of time determined by applicable statutes.

Practice Description:

In the event a damage investigation, litigation, or other event occurs, it often is necessary to have a hard-copy printout of a locate request ticket. Local governments have statutory requirements for record retention in such cases. The 811 center has the ability to produce, as necessary, a copy of a location request ticket for the appropriate statutory period.
