The term Member is used in two different ways - one, in reference to Dig|Safely. New York organizational membership, and the other in reference to a company's setup in the One-Call Center's software system.
When you join Dig|Safely. New York, your company becomes a member of the organization as is described in Membership (Joining).
A Member, within the general parlance of the software system, is the overall data container for the member's hierarchy of Service Areas and Destinations, along with billing options that are associated with that hierarchy. All of those things are said to belong to that member.
While atypical, it is quite possible for a member of the organization to have several members in the software system. Such cases are generally the result of mergers / buyouts in the utility industry.
For additional details on the software aspect of a Member, please review Member Setup.
