Healey Falls GS Expansion

Ontario Power Generation Inc. awarded Kiewit the bid-build contract for the expansion of Healey Falls Generating Station. Located about 15 kilometers north of Campbellford, the generating station includes a new unit in a spare bay inside the existing hydroelectric power plant once complete.

The existing facility is connected to the Hydro One 44-kilovolt feeder. The scope of work included the bifurcation of one penstock, feeding existing units two and three. In addition, the third penstock supplies water to the new unit. The crews excavated the generator pit and draft tube, constructed the tailrace pier and installed the tailrace dewatering gate.
