Baton Rouge, LA — ISC announced their performance on the Marathon Garyville 10-22 Substation Installation Project in Garyville, Louisiana earned a national Excellence in Construction (EIC) Award. The EIC awards program is the industry’s leading competition that honors contractors for innovative and high-quality merit shop construction projects.
ISC completed the new 10-22 Substation Installation Project for Marathon during their Substation Replacement Program initiative (SRP). Mature equipment was replaced with an efficient, modern substation to maximize the capacity and production of the units. In total, ISC was able to complete the project safely, under budget and on schedule with zero recordable incidents.
