Ditch Witch, McLaughlin and Vac-Tron to Host Vacuum Excavation Workshop

As operators and contractors continue to work beneath the earth’s surface, especially as fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and other applications take off, thousands of underground utility lines will need to be exposed to avoid possible damages. It is important to be educated and know your options when it comes to safe digging. Case in point: Did you know vacuum excavators can be used to expose hidden underground utilities, helping companies cut costs and avoid damaging existing infrastructure which can lead to accidents?

Join the hands-on Vacuum Excavation for Exposing Utilities workshop at the CGA 811 Excavation Safety Conference & Expo to learn the benefits of vacuum excavation, operating techniques and best practices for site preparation and safety. Workshop attendees will also have the opportunity to operate equipment and experiment on various underground conditions.

What: Vacuum Excavation for Exposing Utilities workshop

When: 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. ET, Tuesday, March 8, 2016

Presenters: Jason Proctor, Ditch Witch
Dave Gasmovic, McLaughlin Group Inc.
Don Buckner, Vac-Tron Equipment
