Arctic Directory: AIC wins Juneau area construction contracts

Alaska Interstate Construction LLC said Sept. 3 that it recently won two construction contracts in the Juneau area of Southeast Alaska. The company successfully bid for the principal civil and piping contract for the tailings facility at Coeur Alaska’s Kensington Mine. Coeur awarded the contract on Aug. 21. AIC also won a $28.6 million contract to complete runway safety area improvements at Juneau International Airport on Aug. 10. The tailings facility at Lower Slate Lake is the only remaining construction left before the Kensington Mine can begin gold production. Following that, most of the 80-acre lake will be pumped out to an acceptable level of construction and a temporary dam will be erected so work can begin on a permanent dam. AIC contracted with a local tribal corporation to provide AIC project-specific socieconomic and cultural outreach services. AIC’s successful bid for the Juneau International Airport contract will extend the airport’s runway at both ends, which requires extensive filling and dredging. AIC will also improve taxiways and lighting, realign an adjacent creek and trail, dredge the float plane pond and build float plane ramps. For more information visit www.aicllc.com.
