In a joint venture with English River Constructors, JV Driver Group built the Uranium Slurry Loadout Facility for Cameco Corporation. Using JV Driver Group innovative labour strategies was key to the success of this project. The facility included the largest pachuca tanks ever built in Canada and a 100’ high concrete containment wall that was constructed through extreme weather conditions. Full civil, mechanical, structural, electrical, and instrumentation services were provided for the project. The job was completed in 11 months through an extreme winter, with no Lost Time Accidents.
