Newsome Electrical Construction, LLC has been awarded the electrical construction contract for the Shaws Creek Water Treatment facility in Aiken.
Working alongside Harper General Contractors, Newsome will construct the electrical infrastructure for the water treatment plant, administration and chemical buildings, and new utility building. In addition to installing and distributing power systems, the project includes site lighting, fire alarms, and a lightning protection system.
“Newsome Electrical Construction was selected for the project based on their strong reputation, expertise, and proven record for producing high-quality work,” said Jared McMullan, Senior Project Manager with Harper General Contractors. “We look forward to them matching our commitment to excellence and our team providing outstanding results for the customer.”
