Piledriving began in early June 2024, and we anticipate will continue through early October 2024. Generally, piledriving occurs Monday through Saturday, from 7 a.m. through 5:30 p.m. This is an important first step in building the foundation for the solar arrays and other equipment as we prepare for next steps in fall 2024.
