Damage Prevention Is Safety, Risk Control, and Cost Control
Every excavation project carries risk. A missed or inaccurate locate can lead to utility strikes, service disruptions, project delays, claims, repair costs, and serious safety hazards. That is why damage prevention is not only a compliance requirement. It is a critical part of protecting people, infrastructure, schedules, and budgets.
Canadian Locators Inc. plays an important role in that process. Through accurate utility locating, responsive coordination, and disciplined field execution, CLI helps clients make informed decisions before work begins in the ground.
The 2025 Utility Safety Partners Locator of the Year Award recognizes that commitment. It reflects the confidence of Alberta’s damage prevention community and acknowledges the work CLI teams perform every day in the field and behind the scenes.

Supporting Safer Excavation Across Alberta
Utility locating is one of the most important steps in safe excavation. It gives contractors, utilities, municipalities, and project owners the information they need to reduce risk before digging begins.
