Marquette Electric
Division of Energy and Infrastructure Solutions

Marquette Electric is overly familiar with this type of project as it spearheaded efforts to build the canals and locks of Lakes Champlain and Chambon. Marquette Electric is also contracted by the Marquen government as the primary engineering force on its lock.

Furthermore, our division has extensive experience with maritime construction as we build numerous oil, research, and military platforms at sea.

We submit that our experience is more than enough to qualify us for to take on Parts 1-4

The all weather roads to and the airstrips at the construction site must be completed by Hodgson-Baxter Infrastructural Engineering Company before the dam projects can get underway, but work can commence with equipment and personnel that can be flown in by helicopter or can travel over the existing dirt and gravel roads.

Due to a geological incident which the continental plates shifted and opened a waterway connecting the Green Sea to the Implarian Ocean, this project has been cancelled.
