"Congratulations on successfully and safely completing the work in 3~d construction cycle; as a result we have now completed ail critical repair work on 11F / 12F 110kV Lattice Structures. This critical repair will ensure safe and reliable operations of these important circuits connecting SaskPower System with the Northern Communities through Island Fall. "
"I want to take this opportunity to recognize your relentless commitments to Health, Safety, and Environment while working in remote environmentally sensitive areas. SaskPower Project Team and Sr. Leadership value our partnership with Ampjack and thankful for delivering innovative repair solution with high quality."
"Wishing Ampjack Team the best on future projects."
“We have done hundreds of tower extensions here at Manitoba Hydro, so I am very familiar with the traditional crane hoisting method. The Ampjack system would have been an asset to us in many situations, particularly where access is limited for a traditional crane. The ability to adjust each leg individually and both up and down was an added advantage."
“Ampjack has patents on a tower raising system that does not involve the use of a crane, which allows the work to be completed within a small footprint with low impact to its surroundings. With many of the discrepancies on the Big Creek lines located in government lands, the use of Ampjack helps minimize environmental impacts and reduces agency review and permitting time."
"In addition, raising the existing historic Big Creek towers results in a finding of No Significant Impacts with respect to Cultural Resources. The use of Ampjack also provides the opportunity to perform the work while the line is energized, which allows work to occur year‐round and provides flexibility and opportunities for other projects that require outages. Ampjack was the chosen alternative for this work based on these time and cost savings and impact reductions. Ampjack is providing a DBE Tier 2 Subcontracting Pledge of 6.5%.”
