An Irish Flag flys over the Merritt Green Energy Project. Two main structures, culverts, and ditching about the project is underway with crews from Acres Construction who travel from Kamloops in a 15 passenger van daily. Canada’s national flag is seen slightly higher on the ascending buildings.The project is reported to be in the 270K range and will result in a 40 Megawatt steam generator. The green wood waste burning plant is going into the provincial power grid.
EN:Skill and professionalism may replace luck but a bit of Irish can’t hurt.
