Research Requests for Expired or Lost Tickets

Per Section 6 (4) of Public Act 174 of 2013, MISS DIG 811 maintains an archive of locate requests (tickets) for six years. For a fee, MISS DIG 811 will search the archived requests to provide you with the requested information. When completing this form, please give us as much information on the work location as possible. If a portion of the information on the form is not provided, thorough research may still be carried out if the location of the work is given. Please do not assume that MISS DIG 811 will know the location of an address or a county in which a city, village, or township is located.

Research Request fees are based on records pertaining to one job and cover the cost of preparing the documents. For $96.30, you will receive a copy of the ticket and, upon request, a voice recording of the ticket if placed over the phone. Please expect a one to two weeks' turnaround after payment is received. Note that voice recordings prior to 2022 are unavailable.

If you or your organization is a member of MISS DIG 811, you can access most ticket and Positive Response data associated with your membership only at no additional cost. Please note that this excludes data requested through a legal subpoena, data from the Newtin system, and voice recordings. If you're uncertain whether the information needed is available free of charge, we're happy to help! Contact our Member Services Department at (800) 482-7161 or membersupport@missdig811.org before completing this form.

*Not sure if you're a member? Members have completed onboarding paperwork and receive an annual invoice for their membership fee.

For a prompt response to your request, please provide as much detail as possible on this form. If you have additional questions or have a large Research Request (e.g., multiple locations), contact the MISS DIG 811 Administration Office at (248) 370-6400.
