Positive response is an important tool that allows each facility owner to communicate the status of a locate request directly with the excavator. This full-circle communication works to reduce the chance of a damage occurring by providing excavators the additional information needed work safely at the job site.
Facility owner/locator status codes:
CODE 0: Not Yet Responded
CODE 1: Clear/No Conflict
CODE 2: Marked/Completed
CODE 3: Marked – Utility Representative Required
CODE 4: Work-in-Progress – Not Yet Completed
CODE 5: Not Marked – Contact Locator ASAP
If a facility owner participates in positive response, Ticket Check will show their current status. If they do not participate by responding back to the notification center with a positive response, Ticket Check will state “Does not report.”
