Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Known for its big skies, Montana also is home to more than $1.4 billion worth of projects under construction that are being tracked by Industrial Info. The projects cover a variety of industries, including Power, Food & Beverage and Pharmaceutical-Biotech.
One of the largest undertakings is a natural gas-fired peaking power plant to provide power in times of high demand. NorthWestern Corporation (NASDAQ:NWE) (Sioux Falls, South Dakota) is installing 18 natural gas-fired reciprocating internal combustion engines (RICE) that can ramp up quickly with multiple stops and starts daily as needed. The RICE at the Yellowstone County Generating Station near Laurel will be able to provide up to 175 megawatts (MW) of power when needed. Engineering, procurement and construction contractor Burns & McDonnell Incorporated (Kansas City, Missouri) began work on the project last year and is expected to wrap up in the fourth quarter of this year.

With a past full of many Metals & Metals Industry projects, Montana is underway with cleanup of Superfund sites of former lead and copper smelters. The former lead smelter, located in East Helena, began operating in 1881 and shut its doors in 2001, depositing heavy metals, arsenic and other hazardous chemicals into the soil, surface water and groundwater. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the sources of the contamination included the smelter stack, fugitive emissions from the plant and direct surface water discharges. Cleanup of the site has been ongoing since 2012, and the remainder of the work is expected to near completion late next year.
Over the course of the cleanup, contractor Metallica Commodities Corporation LLC (White Plains, New York) will send about 2 million tons of slag by rail to Washington state, where it will be shipped to a South Korean company to extract residual metals and use the remainder to create cement. The site's contaminated soils will be covered to protect groundwater. Subscribers to Industrial Info's Metals & Minerals Project Database can click here for the project report.
Remediation of the former copper smelter site, located near Anaconda and closed since 1980, has been ongoing for three years and entails the cleanup of contaminated soil, the consolidation of waste materials and the placement of engineered covers over waste-management areas. The project is expected to wrap up in 2025. Subscribers can click here for more information.
Coca-Cola Bottling Company High Country (Rapid City, South Dakota) is expanding its presence in Montana with the construction of a grassroot beverage-manufacturing and distribution center in Billings. The company has maintained a warehouse facility in the area for many years but is now shifting manufacturing there as well. The 168,000-square-foot facility will feature 60,000 square feet of warehouse space, 80,000 square feet of manufacturing space and 20,000 square feet for truck loading. The plant is expected to be fully operational next year. Subscribers to Industrial Info's Food & Beverage Project Database can click here for more details on the project.
The National Institutes of Health (Bethesda, Maryland) is expanding its Rocky Mountains Laboratories campus in Hamilton by constructing a 120,000-square-foot climate-controlled vivarium. The facility will be used to house and handle nontraditional laboratory animals, including insects such as mosquitos, fleas and ticks, used in the research of infectious diseases. General contractor Hensel Phelps Construction Company (Greely, Colorado) kicked off construction in late 2021 and is expected to wrap up the project next year.
