KC Scout Locators attend 3-day learning session in Springfield, MO

Prevention and safety are two things Intermediate Maintenance Workers York Morlan and Chris Butler strive to learn more about and follow every day. Morlan and Butler serve Scout as utility locators where their primary role is finding and painting underground utilities and powerlines. Locators are essential to KC Scout operations as their services prevent damages and help prevent interruptions to Scout communications devices. Growing their knowledge in this field is essential. 

On Dec. 6-7 they attended a conference in Springfield, MO, at Ozark Empire Fairgrounds called “2023 Damage Prevention and Excavation Safety Summit.” The conference included various sessions like “The importance of job task and hazard analysis” and “Locating the RIGHT way.” 



The summit was an opportunity to keep the conversation going and think outside of the box with like-minded individuals. “I really enjoyed my time at the summit and learning about different viewpoints within the industry,” stated Morlan.
