Gopher State One Call (GSOC) is the one call notification system established to inform all Minnesota underground facility operators of intended excavation. As the communication link between the excavator and the underground facility operator, GSOC has increased public safety while decreasing underground facility damage, monetary loss and personal injury by coordinating the locating of underground facilities.

Gopher State One Call is unique in a number of ways. It is one of very few statewide one call centers in the country that not only covers a large geographic area but also has mandatory utility membership. In Minnesota, all parties come together to enhance the safety of the general public.

While the education of the "professionals" in the construction industry is always an ongoing project, education of the homeowner or one time user is also important to Gopher State One Call, since Minnesota Statute Chapter 216D applies to anyone conducting excavation work in Minnesota.

Facility operators, contractors, and excavators have banded together to use Gopher State One Call to dramatically reduce third-party damage to underground facilities, saving time and money and, most importantly, providing greater safety to work crews and the public. Its success can be attributed to those in Minnesota, especially its more that 1,450 plus underground facility operators, who have made Gopher State One Call what it is today.
