Gopher State One Call
GSOC is the one-call notification system established to act as a communication link between underground facility operators, homeowners, and excavators in the State of Minnesota. GSOC collects information from anyone who is planning to excavate and transmits this information to facility operators who may have underground facilities near the excavation site. After receiving a notice from GSOC, facility operators mark the approximate location of an underground facility with paint or flags, respond to the ticket electronically, or determine the work area is clear. Facility operators may then provide a response through GSOC’s Positive Response site for anyone to view the results of the located underground facilities.
