## The honest read

M. DiStasio Excavation Contractors describes itself on its website as a Massachusetts excavation contractor doing residential, commercial and municipal excavation, utility, sitework and drainage work, including home foundation dig-outs. The site names Michael DiStasio as its contact and principal.

In 2021, local news covered a fatal accident involving the company: a 2021 wcvb.com story quoted Michael DiStasio, President of M. DiStasio Excavation Contractors, saying an employee, Russell, suffered a tragic accident on the job that resulted in his death. A 2021 nbcboston.com story said the company identified the employee killed in a construction incident at a home in Newton, Massachusetts.
