PAPA's excavator geofencing program uses cutting-edge technology to target “high risk” excavators. The program is open to both pipeline operators and one call centers nationwide.  

Program Benefits:

  • Strategically target high-risk excavators
  • Leverage a tested and proven campaign
  • Receive company-specific documentation
  • Leverage cost-savings of a collaborative program (graphic design, data analysis costs are shared)
  • Reach a smaller target than with an individual campaign
  • You do not have to be a current PAPA member to participate 

2025 Overview:

  • Open to one call centers and operators (do not have to be a current PAPA member)
  • Enroll high-risk counties (will target the top or a list of high-risk excavators)
  • Ads strategically targeted at excavators using geofencing technology
  • Campaign will run in August 2025
  • Sign-up to receive company-specific documentation, including delivery to specific excavators

    • Cost: $1,050 per operator
  • Option 2: County
