underground facilities; excavations; notification

Summary

The bill adds new rules to Arizona’s underground‑facility laws, making anyone who plans to dig—on public streets, private easements, apartment complexes or mobile‑home parks—first determine where utilities are and have them marked in a careful way. It sets notification and coordination steps for large projects, creates civil penalties of up to $5,000, and makes violators liable for any damage caused. The law also spells out the duties of landlords, utility operators, one‑call centers and building officials in the marking process.
