The Wyoming Department of Transportation aims to eliminate underground fuel storage tanks at their facilities around the state. These tanks are being replaced with new, above ground storage tanks, with leak and overflow detection systems. These projects typically include new dispensers with computerized dispensing and logging systems. West Plains Engineering has been involved in projects in Torrington, Basic, Casper, Laramie and Cheyenne.

The project was completed utilizing a third party owner’s representative and a Construction Manager at Risk (CMaR). Demolition of the existing Medical Center wing commenced in March of 2012. Demolition of the adjacent buildings followed in June of 2012. Construction of the new tower commenced in August of 2012 and was completed in November of 2013. Renovations in the existing Medical Center followed completion of the new tower, and the entire project was completed by April of 2014.
