Harsco is providing services to Richmond, Va.-based Dominion Virginia Power, which is building a 585-megawatt power plant near St. Paul, Va. Dominion began the Virginia City Hybrid Energy Center — capable of burning almost any type of coal and waste wood — in 2008.
Harsco will be the scaffold project manager for the final phase of construction with 375 scaffold workers and 2,000 access platforms, according to the company. Dominion’s engineering firm, Baton Rouge, La.-based The Shaw Group Inc., originally hired Harsco to conduct an analysis of the project’s scaffold requirements and labor productivity.
Wormleysburg-based Harsco provides products and services to companies in the metals, energy, railway and non-residential construction industries. Its shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol HSC.
