Two separate units were worked on at this site. The two teams were led by APM Superintendents John Stalling, Roger Yerdon, Ray Gallahue and Keven Matheson. The crews were on site for a little over two weeks and consisted of about 10 Millwrights per shift, and all employees on site contributed to the success of this project. Great job by the crews and the leadership for embracing CBS. When you combine an environment of community and a strong safety culture, you are bound to get great results.  Thanks team and keep up the outstanding work.
