Electrical Upgrade - Canadian Forces Station Mill Cove

The Department of National Defence (DND) is proposing to upgrade electrical communication infrastructure at Canadian Forces Station Mill Cove.

The proposed scope of work comprises of:

  • Installation of conduit system for power and communications to each existing tower. This includes conduit, wiring, conduit fittings and accessories, pull boxes and junction boxes, racking, supports, and all devices needed for a complete system.
  • Installation of power feeds for receptacles, antenna system power, and power to existing obstruction lights. This includes breakers, disconnect switches, and all associated accessories needed for a complete system.
  • All associated trenching, excavation, backfill, and core drilling.
