Special Notice for Fibre Optic Cables
If you're digging within 2 metres (6.56 feet) of fibre optic cables, you need to have Fibre Watch onsite. Please give us at least 48 hours' notice to schedule this, or call 204-717-2811 for assistance.
Important Tips
Plan Ahead
Requests for buried cable locates should be made at least 7 working days before you dig. During busy seasons (April to October), we recommend allowing up to 2 weeks for scheduling.
Wait for Clearance
Don’t start digging until you receive confirmation from Westman Communications Group that it’s safe to proceed.
We Only Locate Our Facilities
We can locate only the lines we own. Other private underground services like wells or septic systems may not be covered.
