Timber Run Hydropower Corporation mandated Equinox Construction Services (ECS) to carry out the design, contracting, sourcing, installation and commissioning of a combination debris/safety boom for the Norland Hydropower Plant. Various suppliers were contacted to provide pricing for the supply of the boom and design of the bank anchors. No in-water anchors were needed for this 22 m-long section.

ECS managed the supply, logistics, and delivery, as well as the installation of the new boom. The proper positioning, elevation, depth and arrangement of the boom were determined by ECS' engineering staff.

For this mandate, no drawings, bathymetry, detailed engineering work or consultations were required, given the relatively short length.

Furthermore, ECS managed the approval process with the Parcs Canada Agency (PCA) and remains on hand to carry out regular inspections, adjustments and preventative maintenance on the debris/safety boom, as well as PCA's safety boom upstream of the Norland Dam.
