CONGRATULATIONS KOREY WHITE, 2020 LOUISIANA LOCATOR OF THE YEAR!

#SafetyShoutout to Illinois Technician 4 Patrick Gibson! While locating the gas, telephone and cable lines at a residence, Patrick noticed that the local electric company, which performs its own locates, had not yet been on site. The next day, when the ticket was due, he was in the area and went back to check. He found that the electric had not been located, and the homeowners were about to beginning digging to set a flag pole. He hooked on to a nearby transformer, discovered the electric ran exactly where they were about to dig and informed the homeowners that they needed to #Call811 and request a no show ticket for electric only before digging. Patrick, who has been damage-free throughout his two years as a USIC locator, may very well have prevented serious injury or death. Thank you, Patrick, for going above and beyond to protect the community!
