Mark your calendars!


Our next Lunch & Learn will feature "Call Before You Dig: Understanding Louisiana 811," presented by Ja'Ponica "JP" Dunbar, Damage Prevention Coordinator (Southeast Louisiana) with Louisiana 811.


This informative session will provide an overview of Louisiana's underground utility damage-prevention process and explain why contacting Louisiana 811 before excavation is essential to protecting workers, underground infrastructure, and the public.


Topics will include when a locate request is required, what information is needed to submit a request, how to interpret utility markings, and the responsibilities of excavators, utility operators, and property owners. This session will also discuss common causes of underground utility strikes, safe digging practices, and practical steps organizations can take to reduce risk, maintain compliance, and prevent costly incidents.
