Eden, Kentucky, which focuses on new water service, electrical services, and sanitary sewer improvements to existing campsites. Key project deliverables include compliance with Architectural Woodwork Standards at the Premium grade for cabinets and countertops, adherence to specifications for plastic-laminate-clad architectural cabinets and countertops, proper installation of post and panel/pylon signage, and management of hazardous materials including asbestos abatement by a Kentucky-licensed company prior to building demolition.
