Located five miles north of Orla, Red Bluff Dam was originally constructed across the Pecos River to provide irrigation to farmlands from Red Bluff to the nearby town of Grandfalls.

Due to compositesite geology, the scope of work will include both high and low mobility grouting and microfine injection grouting. The entire grouting program will be monitored and recorded using GROUT I.T., Nicholson鈥檚 proprietary automated computerized grouting system.

鈥淭his is a challenging project with a very complex geology,鈥 said Luca Barison, Senior Vice President of Pre-Construction for Nicholson鈥檚 Major Projects Group. 鈥淚t is an internal joint venture between two of our groups, Major Projects and our Rocky Mountain Region, who both bring expertise and experience to the project. We鈥檙e looking forward to getting Red Bluff Dam rehabilitated for the Owner and the local communities.鈥

麻豆传媒will mobilize to the site by May 2023. The project is expected to be completed by Q3 2025.
