AB 1914 California Assembly · 2017-2018 Regular Session

Underground installations: excavations.

Summary

Existing law requires an excavator planning to conduct any excavation to contact the appropriate regional notification center before beginning that excavation, as specified. Existing law, if an excavation is within the tolerance zone of a subsurface installation, requires the excavator to determine the exact location of the subsurface installations in conflict with the excavation using specified tools, except as otherwise provided. This bill, beginning July 1, 2020, would authorize an excavator to use certain equipment prior to determining the exact location of the subsurface installations, and would require the California Underground Facilities Safe Excavation Board, on or before July 1, 2020, to adopt regulations to implement this provision.
