A Comprehensive Look at Private Utilities Locates by Mason Private Locating

1:50 PM-2:20 PM

In this informative session, experts from Mason Private Locating will delve into the critical distinctions between public and private utility locates, addressing a common oversight among project managers who typically rely solely on 811 for utility marking. While 811 provides valuable information about public utilities, many underground utilities—such as sewer laterals, private power feeds and water services—are often unmarked and overlooked.

This session will explore the nuances of underground infrastructure, including scenarios involving hospitals, universities and manufacturing facilities, highlighting the importance of being aware of utilities you may not even know exist. Join the Mason Private Locating team as we discuss the necessity of collaborating with both 811 and private utility locating services.
