ARLINGTON, VA – October 21, 2008 Safety and Ecology Corporation (SEC), was awarded a contract potentially valued just under $11 million to provide construction installation services to support a Tennessee manufacturer’s capital improvement expansion project. Phase I is funded at $6.8 million with the scope of Phase II being a $4 million option.

Over the next ten months, the SEC team will perform the total installation of special equipment that automates a process currently being used at the manufacturer’s other facilities, yet new to the Tennessee facility.

“Our environmental restoration and infrastructure division continues to provide expanding value to our client’s facility renovations and upgrades,” said HSCC President and SEC CEO Chris Leichtweis.

Headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee, SEC’s working relationship with the Tennessee manufacturer broadens its local presence with commercial clients.

“This project affords us the opportunity to demonstrate our expanding suite of infrastructure upgrade and refurbishment services to one of our most important commercial clients, The award is a direct result of our outstanding performance on previous projects and will allow us to continue to execute our growth strategy,” commented former Congressman and HSCC Chairman C. Thomas McMillen.
