Washington's Dig Law (RCW 19.122) is changing in 2013.
What's Changing for 2013
After three years and a great deal of input from stakeholders, the Legislature passed E2SHB-1634, the Underground Utilities Damage Prevention Act, in 2011. The intent of the legislation was to build and improve upon the existing dig law by addressing federal standards along with eliminating outdated or poor practices.
The new law will go into effect January 2013, in order to give the industry and state time to prepare for the new requirements.
