Priest Rapids Dam

This particular project proved to be challenging in its own right. The basic idea was to provide a lift inside the dam to service from the third floor, sitting at ground level, down to the two lower levels that reached the bottom of the Columbia River. This lift, when completed, will be used for moving parts, materials, and forklifts to the other floors for servicing the turbines. Our first task was to get our supplies down to the first floor where large turbines are, generating massive amounts of power from the Columbia River. We then built this lift up to the ground level floor.
