Underground Service Alert of Northern California & Nevada operates a public safety service focused on protecting communities and underground infrastructure in Central and Northern California and Nevada. Established in 1975 and incorporated as a nonprofit mutual benefit organization in 1986, the group coordinates the exchange of planned excavation reports between excavators and its utility members, who then mark, locate, or communicate clearance for their facilities. Its services address the needs of public and private excavators by reducing the risk of damage to underground infrastructure through advance notification and coordination. Based in Concord, California, the organization serves a regional market across a broad set of California counties and the state of Nevada, employing a workforce that supports its damage prevention mission within the public safety sector.
