About Powder River Construction Inc

Powder River Construction takes its name from the basin itself — wide, coal-seamed country stretching out past Gillette, where trains a mile long haul the ground's own dark fuel toward the horizon. In winter, the company's equipment turns from grading job sites to clearing them, pushing snow off access roads and lay-down yards so the basin's work doesn't stall for weather. The scale of it suits the landscape: full-width plow blades cutting lanes wide enough for the same haul trucks and rigs that work this country the rest of the year. There's a quiet pride in it — keeping the access open on a stretch of land this big, this exposed, where a storm can close a road faster than it can be reopened by hand.
