Type:Ìý°Õ°ù²¹²Ô²õ³¾¾±²õ²õ¾±´Ç²Ô
Scope: Performed a 12.2 mile 115kV transmission line construction project in an environmentally sensitive coastal salt marsh.
Location: Brunswick, Georgia
Client:ÌýGeorgia Transmission Corporation
In 2013, (“GTC”) contracted Irby to construct a 12.2 mile 115kv transmission line south of Savannah, Georgia including a 4 mile section through a protected salt marsh.
In service of the Coastal Electric Cooperatives service area, the project connected two radial transmission systems (Burnt Church and Tradeport) in Bryan and Liberty counties. In observance of the projects environmental sensitivity, Irby adapted a construction solution whereby poles were set by an helicopter to minimize the impact to marshland ecosystems.
Completed on time and within strict environmental parameters, the project exemplified Irby’s capability to plan and execute novel technical solutions to the highest standards of environmental best practice.
