Mason Private Locating (MPL) is excited to announce that we are an Official Supply Partner of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The significance of this partnership is multidimensional for our organization. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is not only a local and National Historic Landmark, but this legendary track has also hosted several of the greatest moments, traditions, and heroes in racing history.
Being raised in the shadow of "The Brickyard," and well-within the surge of the private utility industry, MPL Owner and Operator, Jake Mason has a unique perspective of the speedway:
"My grandparents lived two blocks away from the track when I was growing up. We were there every race season and I remember being overwhelmed by the magnitude, even as a kid. It had already been around for almost 100 years, at that time; 30 years later, and it has continued to grow and evolve like a living, breathing piece of race history." - Jake Mason, Mason Private Locating
Utilities are brought to the "campus" by public utility lines; they are then distributed to and between campus facilities via a complex private utility network. Power, water, gas, sewer, communications, and other utilities are critical to guest services including ticketing, restrooms, concessions, parking, camping and, of course, racing. These private utilities fall outside of the 811 scope of work and require additional training and equipment to protect.
It is our honor to help champion the safety of critical utility infrastructure for the historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway and its associated facilities.
