E2290300 Quartz Creek to Sterling T-Line Rebuild Phase 2

The contract involves rebuilding an existing 115 kV wood‑pole transmission line segment near Sterling, Alaska to modern 230 kV standards. Work includes installing new steel H‑frame and pole‑angle structures, upgrading conductors to 795 kcmil ACSR “Drake”, adding OPGW fiber‑optic cable and OHGW, and delivering as‑built documentation, warranties, and required insurance.
