OneCallAccess Ticket Entry Platform

MISS Dig 811 is now utilizing the OneCallAccess ticket entry platform for placing dig and design notices. The new platform provides users access to ticket entry, ticket history and positive response from the user dashboard.

To place a dig or design request, click Submit Locate Request on the home page of the MISS DIG 811 website. If you haven’t created a OneCallAccess account, click Sign Up Here on the log in page.

New OneCallAccess users have basic access to the ticket entry platform and can place normal 21-day tickets and design tickets. To create an accountby clicking Submit Locate Request from the home page at MISSDIG811.ORG then clicking Sign Up Here. 

  • Normal 21-day tickets are for jobs that 20,000 sq ft or less in urban areas. That is equivalent to a 200ft X 100ft lot. The limit in rural areas is 50,000 sq ft or less. 

  • Design tickets are for the planning phase of a project. These jobs are not marked by locators. Instead, records or drawings of facilities are emailed to you. 

 It is recommended all new users attend aOneCallAccess Tutorial Webinar.This class provides a thorough tour of the system, showing users how to place tickets, view ticket history, and check positive response. The webinar lasts approximately two hours. To sign up for a webinar, log into your SkillBuilder account.
