Project Description

As part of the construction of the Romaine-3 hydroelectric complex, Hamel-CRT was awarded a number of contracts, including construction of the dam and excavation of the spillway.

The contractor’s area notably included a heavy machinery repair area, several above-ground storage tanks, a truck wash area and parking areas for equipment.
