The ENR Mid-Atlantic awards program features 18 categories
dedicated to honoring the best construction projects and the
companies that designed and built them. Judges selected the winning
projects from 65 nominations in the Mid-Atlantic region, which
encompasses Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West
Virginia and the District of Columbia. Projects were evaluated on
the ability of the project team to overcome challenges,
contribution to the industry and community, safety, and
construction and design quality.
Brunswick County Power Station began commercial operations in
April 2016 with Fluor providing engineering, procurement,
construction and commissioning services for the facility. Fluor’s
construction staff and craft peaked at about 1,500 team members.
The construction team successfully installed more than 38,000 cubic
yards of concrete, 142,000 linear feet of pipe and 420 miles of
cable. The project was completed ahead of schedule. Significant
attention was placed on safety, a core value for both Fluor and
Dominion.
The honors were announced Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at the ENR
Mid-Atlantic awards presentation in Baltimore.
“Receiving this recognition from ENR Mid-Atlantic is truly an
honor for Fluor,” said Wolfgang Greinke, vice president of Fluor’s
Power business. “This project exemplifies Fluor’s expertise and
commitment to bringing clean, natural gas energy to the grid. We
are particularly proud that the project was recognized for safety
excellence. Our project team, together with Dominion, is truly
deserving of this notable recognition from ENR.”
“Dominion is very proud to win this award from ENR—along with
Fluor—for the Brunswick County Power station project,” said Mark
Mitchell, vice president of generation construction for Dominion.
“We are especially proud that the station also won the Excellence
in Safety Award. Providing clean, affordable and reliable power
every day to our customers is our commitment, and by adding
Brunswick to our fleet, it contributes daily to doing just
that.”
As a top category winning project in ENR Mid-Atlantic, Brunswick
County Power Station will compete in the national competition with
projects recognized in the energy/industrial category in ENR’s
other eight regions across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The selected
project will be recognized as an ENR Best of the Best Project in a
special editorial feature in early 2017.
