As we embark on a new year, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on our past accomplishments and look ahead to the exciting opportunities that lie ahead for our organization. We have made significant progress in areas of safety and damage prevention by dedicating ourselves to the mission of Texas811 and understanding the importance of what it is we do every day.
At Texas811, our top priority is always the protection of our state’s underground infrastructure and the safety of the communities that rely on it. In 2023, we are committed to working together to take our damage prevention efforts to the next level.
One of the ways we plan to do this is by strengthening our partnerships with stakeholders across the state. By working closely with our members, contractors, locators, and other stakeholders, we can ensure that everyone is on the same page when it comes to damage prevention and safety. We will also continue to provide valuable resources and support to help prevent accidents and keep our infrastructure in top condition.
We will be launching several new initiatives in the coming year to promote damage prevention
best practices and compliance with industry standards. We believe that by staying focused on our mission, working together, and staying up-to-date on the latest technologies and techniques, we can have the best year yet in terms of reducing pipeline and utility damages and ultimately improving public safety.
Thank you for your ongoing commitment to protecting our underground infrastructure.
