​Requirements
Facility operators and excavators who observe or cause damage to an underground facility must report that damage event to the commission within 45 calendar days, as outlined in RCW 19.122.053.
How to Report
Damage can be reported using the Common Ground Alliance's VirtualDIRT program hosted by the commission. Before entering damage for the first time, you must create an account for your company. Once an account is created, you can input reports as often as necessary. This program is anonymous.
If you are a homeowner excavator, or a professional excavator that does not wish to create a DIRT account but still has something to report, you can use the alternate form available through the commission. Any damage submitted through this form is not anonymous.
