Locator Recognition Program
 
Do you have a locator you would like recognized for their excellent performance?

  If you do, read on - and then nominate that locator to be recognized by Tennessee 811.
 
Locators are in the field every day, meeting production demands while maintaining high standards and dealing daily with overcrowded utility easements. 

Their function is crucial and one, when performed with excellence, protects underground utilities, saves lives and keeps the public safe every day.  

Yet locators rarely receive recognition or appreciation for their hard work.   

Tennessee 811 would like to recognize the best people of this very important stakeholder group.

Nominations must be submitted to Kathy Quartermaine (kquarter@tennessee811.com) by January 31, 2016.  

Prizes will be awarded to the winning locators.

Locators must be nominated by their employer.   The qualification period is January 1, 2015 - December 31, 2015.

To qualify for recognition a locator must meet the following criteria:
 
  • Liable Damages: Zero at fault damages during the rating period (no error or omission on locator's part). This is determined by the individual company and/or utility owner operator.
  • Attendance: Zero unexcused absences during the rating period.
  • Safety: Zero safety violations during the rating period.  Examples are driving infractions and internal safety violations. Each company should use their discretion in this area.
  • Locating must be their primary job function.
