At the Palo Verde Generating Station, new reactor identification signs were installed for each unit, starting with Unit 2, the first visible upon entering the Protected Area. While the task seemed straightforward, it involved significant challenges, including working at heights, using man lifts, and adhering to strict safety protocols. Through meticulous planning, risk analysis, and rigorous safety measures—such as 100% tie-off compliance and tool lanyards—the team successfully completed the installation without incident.

The West Phoenix Power Plant plays a vital role in delivering reliable power to its surrounding community. Maintaining the plant’s infrastructure is crucial to ensuring operational efficiency and extending its longevity. Among its key maintenance initiatives is the repair and upkeep of the cooling tower aprons—critical components that underpin the structural integrity and functionality of the cooling systems.

Bunney’s Inc. played a pivotal role in the 3R21 Palo Verde Generating Station N1 Polar Crane Replacement Project, supporting Konecrane to enhance safety and modernize existing cranes. Despite challenges, including a tight 14-day window, our team, with 18,000 man-hours and a 24/7 schedule, successfully completed the project within budget, attesting to our efficiency, expertise, and commitment to safety.

Bunney’s Inc. excelled in the Palo Verde Cooling Tower Renovation, navigating the nation’s largest power producer’s 17th refueling outage.

Challenges were met with streamlined approaches, while a thorough new hire process ensured excellence. The project was completed within the 18-day window, showcasing our dedication to efficiency and safety.

At SRP’s Santan Valley Generating Station, Bunney’s Inc. tackled equipment reliability issues by replacing an oil-water separator (OWS). Faced with an environmental concern about potential tank leaks during excavation, our solution involved careful side excavation and switching to mechanical excavation. The result was the safe removal of the OWS tank, demonstrating our commitment to environmental safety and effective problem-solving.

Bunney’s inc was able to successfully complete the Unit 1 and 2 concrete foundations additions during a tight window for APS. Again Bunney’s inc safety was exceptional on this project with no recordables or injuries. The team was able to successful dowel over 250 #8 rebar into the existing foundation and pour over 280 yards in a 4 day period. The team was efficient and allowed APS to load the structure 4 days ahead of schedule due to Bunney’s ability to complete the work without rework and passing all inspections on the first try. The client was extremely pleased with Bunney’s attention to detail and quality of work on this project.
