LCRA, Fluor holding open houses May 3 and 10 for new power plant
HORSESHOE BAY — The Lower Colorado River Authority and Fluor Corp. are holding open houses May 3 and 10 for the public to learn more about construction of LCRA’s new power plant.
The come-and-go open houses are 5-8 p.m. May 3 at Quail Point Community Center, 107 Twilight Lane, and May 10 at Lakeside Pavilion, 307 Buena Vista Drive in Marble Falls.
LCRA is replacing its 37-year-old Thomas C. Ferguson Power Plant with a natural gas-fired one.
Artist renderings of the new plant and other displays will be on view at the open houses. LCRA and Fluor staff members also will be available to answer questions from the public.
Fluor began preconstruction activities in the spring. The project schedule includes a two-year construction phase to bring the new power plant on-line in 2014.
