SUMMARY:PA One Call - Coordinate
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to use the Coordinate PA application to increase project safety & collaboration – No cost – PDH 1 \nWith this one-hour WebEx webinar you will learn how to use Pennsylvania 811’s Coordinate PA application. Coordinate PA is the next generation of utility coordination. Coordinate PA is a web service application developed by Pennsylvania 811 to support Public Works and utility project planning and utility coordination within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Instead of meeting to discuss plans\, or copy maps\, or create a spreadsheet of projects\, Utility companies\, public works directors and others describe their projects on a map. Coordinate PA then shows the projects and the project timeframes for users and automatically identifies opportunities for collaboration between projects. The user can see project overlap within a geographic area (for example\, Main Street from First Avenue and Seventh Avenue) and can query for overlap within a specific time frame. Coordinate PA integrates with Pennsylvania 811’s Web Ticket Entry process to create Design and Excavation notifications to increase project safety and reduce project costs as required by Pennsylvania’s Underground Utility Line Protection Law. This course is equal to 1 PDH for Professional Engineering Training.

SUMMARY:Staying Safe When Digging: Excavation & Trenching Basics
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, August 29 and Wednesday\, August 30 at 2:00pm Eastern (1 hour +) Eastern – ZOOM\nCPWR – The Center for Construction Research and Training \nDirt is heavy. Really heavy. One cubic yard of dirt is the weight of a mid-sized car. For this reason\, excavating the earth’s surface for any reason can be dangerous\, especially when that excavation takes the form of a trench – a cavity deeper than its width and narrower than its length. If an excavation cave-in occurs (even a partial one)\, workers can be crushed in seconds\, even if their head and arms remain above the dirt. Join CPWR – The Center for Construction Research & Training\, the Associated General Contractors of America\, OSHA Region III\, and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to learn more about staying safe during excavation activities. Dr. Douglas Trout will review the basics of excavation and trenching safety and our contractor safety specialists from Ed Bell Construction Company and BTConstruction will follow up by sharing their practical experience from the field along with information on activities and initiatives they are engaged in\, including\, for example\, the Trenching Excavation Safety Task force (TEST) to increase awareness and prevention of excavation injuries and fatalities. \nNOTE: A Spanish audio option will be provided through the use of a simultaneous translation service. \nNOTA: Se proporcionará una opción de audio en español a través del uso de un servicio de traducción simultánea. \nClick here to register and submit questions in advance.
