Underground Damage Prevention Program; One-Call Notification System, further provided for complex or large projects, sunset extended

HB 322 updates Alabama's Underground Damage Prevention Program to add specific requirements for excavators working on "complex or large projects" (defined as projects exceeding standard 40-day notice periods, involving five or more work crews, or requiring multiple locate requests in one day). It mandates additional coordination steps for these larger projects before excavation begins, while extending the program's expiration date. The bill also clarifies definitions and procedures for the "One-Call Notification System" used to locate underground utilities. This affects construction companies, utility contractors, and other excavators planning significant projects across Alabama.
