Lower Nicola Site Services (LNSS), a partnership between Infracon Solutions and the Lower Nicola Indian Band Corporation, was contracted by Worley Cord LP to perform a three-phased civil earthworks expansion as part of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project. LNSS utilized a local and Indigenous labour force for most of the work. The three-phased project incorporated over 14,066 Indigenous man-hours.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
As part of the TMEP, LNSS performed civil earthwork expansion, including integrating below-grade installations with existing infrastructure tie-in to maintain the existing pump station operating abilities. LNSS also supplied and installed the storm water drainage system, constructed the retention pond, and supplied and placed aggregates to final grade, while excavating and backfilling 30 inches of relief piping networks. It completed the project on-time, while maintaining safety and quality to the highest standards, despite the fast-paced, simultaneous operations setting.
