Fluor performed engineering, procurement and construction
services and is now providing operations and maintenance services
for the new, 170-megawatt solar photovoltaic (PV) facility located

completed the project safely by working more than 700,000
construction hours with no lost-time accidents and no recordable
incidents.
“It is an honor to have Fluor recognized for the safe execution
of this project,” said Chris Tye, president of Fluor’s Power
business line. “We continue to maintain our safety culture as we
perform operations and maintenance for this facility, helping to
