Brother Blake Triebl operates a Link-Belt LS-108B crawler crane for GDB Constructeurs at the Frederick House Lake Dam, 50 km northeast of Timmins. The rehabilitation project will extend the operating life of the dam, which was constructed in 1937-38, by approximately 50 years.
The work, which will run until the fall of 2025, includes concrete repairs to the dam and sluiceway structure; the replacement of gains, sills, stop logs and sectional gates; road maintenance to support construction access; and temporary in-water work (e.g. cofferdams).
