City of St. Louis Forestry Division Receives Spire’s Silver Shovel Award

Congratulations to the City of St. Louis Forestry division for receiving Spire’s Silver Shovel award, given to municipal organizations in Missouri who have achieved a flawless year with no damages to any gas pipelines. The award is a significant honor and a way for Spire to thank organizations for protecting communities and employees.
 
“The Silver Shovel award is an outstanding recognition of our Forestry team’s attention to safety and coordination with Spire,” said Greg Hayes, Director, Parks, Recreation, and Forestry. "To earn this award 6 years in a row is a testament to the excellence and professionalism shown by our team. In neighborhoods across the City of St. Louis, our team plants, trims, and removes trees. With the use of heavy equipment, including stump grinders, it’s essential that our team puts safety first – and they do every day.”
