Bill Henry, Kennecott Planner, Admits Who Contractors Are

Vince Bevins, Powell Township supervisor, and Jim Gauthier, from the Powell Township Planning Commission, sponsored an "Economic Business Meeting," March 3, at the Powell Township Hall, in Big Bay. Their guest presenters were Jon Cherry, Kennecott Eagle Project manager; Bill Henry, a project planner for Kennecott; and Gregg Nominelli, from the Lake Superior Community Partnership. The meeting, intended to outline economic opportunities related to Kennecott's potential mining activity, was attended by 64 citizens.

While initially saying that Kennecott did not have contractors lined up for construction, Henry did admit that the contractors are Bacco Construction Co., from Iron Mountain; Yalmer-Mattila Contracting Inc., from Houghton; and A. Lindberg & Sons, from Ishpeming. Contractors involved in underground construction are Cementation Canada Inc., from Ontario, and J.S. Redpath Limited, also from Ontario.
