WBK has provided excavation and development services to Midwest Mining Communities for over 40 years. Project scopes have included Top Soil and Sub-soil Stripping, Reclamation, Roadwork, Soil Stabilization, Underground Mine Slope & Portal Excavation, new Slurry & Refuse Impoundments, and Cover & Close Activities for existing storage areas.
WBK is also experienced at the grade and drain scopes for rail access as well as the construction of Rail Load-out Loops (both single and double track). WBK has built 2 such loops in recent years for ALCOA and Gibson County Coal. These loops allow our customers to ship to their energy-producing clients in long “Unit Train” configurations of 75 – 100 cars.
Whether the project is a new start-up requiring full turn-key site work or an existing facility needing to expand storage areas for gob or slurry, WBK is up to the challenge.
“I wanted to personally thank you and your competent staff for the remarkable completion of the Gibson County Coal Load-Out Facility. It is truly amazing what was accomplished on this project.”
