The Jefferson County Industrial Development Agency and Upstate NY Power Corporation will present a Contractors, Vendors and Suppliers Informational Briefing on Friday May 7th, 1 pm at the Watertown Elks Club, 728 Bradley Street, Watertown. This event, open to all companies in the region, is being held to encourage local employers—small and large— to learn more about possible participation in one or more of the many aspects of the proposed Galloo Island Wind Farm.
This is not for job seekers but rather a business to business outreach. Job information and job fairs for the project will come at a later time.
The project developer will need to be supplied with everything from food to gasoline, from steel to land and water transportation, from cement to rock crushing, from doors and windows to roofing material. In addition to the wind energy facilities, this project will also be in need of every service and product required to build a small community from scratch, including a 24 unit condominium facility, and related infrastructure for the full time workers.
Companies will be able to register their business with the developer and position themselves to be ready to make competitive bids on services they can offer after the General Contractor is selected. They will be briefed on the scope of the project and the anticipated timing of the construction phase.
For a more comprehensive list of products and services that will be required visit www.jcjdc.net, or call the JCIDA office at 315-782-5865. Reservations are not required.
