The number you call when you need to find out if there's water, power, or data lines running where you want to dig. They put up little flags to mark where stuff is.
I think most states use it, and most require you to call before doing any digging, even planting trees.

I did the same after 60 days. It was over the winter so no mowing.
They don't care. They'll leave them there until they rust away.
