Wijziging van de Wet informatie-uitwisseling ondergrondse netten in verband met een vrijstelling van de meldplicht voor ondiepe werkzaamheden
This Dutch bill amends the Act on information exchange for underground networks (Wet informatie-uitwisseling ondergrondse netten). The law requires those planning digging or other ground works to check with network operators, through a central information system, where cables and pipes lie before work starts. The bill would exempt certain shallow works from this notification duty. This summary is based only on the procedure's metadata, not the full legislative text. The change would mainly affect contractors, construction firms, and private individuals carrying out shallow ground works, who would no longer need to file a notification for those works. Network operators such as utility companies could receive fewer notifications for shallow works. The details of which works qualify would be set out in the bill itself.
