Before you dig on or near your property, call Cherokee Electric Cooperative to locate any underground lines. Whether you are digging for a flower bed, a fence post or a swimming pool, find out if there are electric lines (or any other utilities, for that matter) buried in the area. Digging into an underground power line could not only disrupt electrical service for you and nearby homes, but it could also deliver a lethal shock!  For more information, click below to visit the Alabama 811 website.
