There are flags and people in my yard, what are they doing?

The flags, or markings, in your area were placed by the local utility companies and help our team identify where the lines are underground. When we begin fiber construction, we use these markings to protect against damage to your property or utilities. Please do not remove these markings until construction is complete and your fiber service has been connected.

Please note: The customer is responsible for marking any underground lines that are not the property of the utility such as electric lines to garages or outbuildings that do not have a separate meter. Underground dog fencing or any other lines/piping that the customer has installed should also be marked. EMPOWER is not responsible for any damage to lines that have not been marked by Miss Utility.
