Powerhouse Emergency Rockfall Stabilization
Facing the elements to perform essential rockfall mitigation behind a Pacific Northwest powerhouse.
Overview
When a rockfall event impacted a critical powerhouse in the North Cascades, emergency rockfall mitigation was required to continue the site’s safe operation.
Key Considerations:
- Very steep to vertical terrain.
- Completing the project before the winter rains started was critical.
- The project’s tight timeline was further impacted by a temporary shutdown of the site due to wildfire.
