Arctic Directory: MACTEC awarded airport contract

MACTEC said May 7 that it has been awarded a two-year contract with the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, to provide environmental services at Ted Stevens International Airport. The airport, about four miles southwest of downtown Anchorage, was constructed in 1951 and renamed by the Alaska legislature in 2000 to honor former U.S. Senator Ted Stevens. Anchorage ranks as the world’s fifth-busiest airport by cargo traffic.

“MACTEC will provide groundwater monitoring and soil testing at remediation land spread areas, fire training facilities, and other locations, such as storm water outfalls and soil storage areas,” said Sean P. Thomas, Alaska office manager of MACTEC. “Additional services and task orders may be issued during the term of the contract to provide additional testing and environmental services as needed.”

MACTEC is a leading infrastructure engineering firm based in Alpharetta, Georgia.
