Piegan Infrastructure & Housing Project at Piegan, Montana

Design-Build construction services to construct new sewage treatment systems, water delivery and treatment systems, natural gas distribution systems and electrical distribution systems and an option to design and build up to 4 housing units. All houses are to be built to the Northern Border Model Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Prototype House design prepared by Garrison Architects. The sewage treatment systems, water delivery and treatment systems, natural gas distribution systems and electrical distribution systems currently supply service to both the Land Port of Entry (LPOE) and the CBP Housing. The demands placed on these systems are believed to be near, at, or beyond the capacities of the existing systems. This project will design and construct additional capacity of these systems, or replace the systems entirely, as required with new systems able to fulfill the combined demands of the LPOE, existing housing and up to 4 additional housing units.
