Review note
Independently read Dig Safe How It Works: ticket lists notified member utilities, missing marks or response by start date requires calling811; members provide marks, nonmembers/private facilities require separate handling. Supports response-check process only, not a centralized Vermont electronic positive-response mandate.
Effective date

Evidence

Limitations
Supports a response-check workflow, not a universal electronic positive-response mandate. State-specific legal exemptions still need review.
