Scope of Work:

Working with the General Contractor, Durr assisted Entergy with their expansion efforts to enlarge their current yard that houses their materials.

Over 9,000 cubic yards of material was excavated from the site by Durr as they prepared the site.  Next, close to 10,000 sq. yds. of Geotextile fabric was laid on the site prior to adding the 6,000 tons of limestone that was trucked in to establish an aggregate base for the new yard.

Underground drainage was essential as the extreme weather during the course of the project further proved the necessity of this key aspect of the project.
