Pilot Hill & Kelly Creek Wind Farms

The Pilot Hill Wind Farm and Kelly Creek Wind Farm projects are wind-powered electric generating facilities nearing completion in Kankakee, Iroquois and Ford Counties in Illinois. These projects provide clean renewable energy for Microsoft Corporation’s Chicago Area Datacenter. HEI’s role in the project was to act as project coordinator and assist in execution of the road use agreement for the governing highway authorities to ensure that the public infrastructure was able to support the movement of a high volume of construction materials, oversized-overweight components, and construction equipment to the generating facilities. HEI provided construction oversight and materials testing for highway and drainage improvements.

HEI provided design, construction observation and testing services for the high school addition project at the existing Knoxville High School site. This project consisted of demolition of much of the existing high school building and infrastructure, and construction of a completely new structure including classrooms, gym, and auditorium. Site grading, new pavement, curb & gutter, storm sewer, water main, sanitary sewer, drainage design, storm water detention, sidewalk, and handicap accessible ramps. Coordination with the school district, architect, construction contractor, utility companies, City of Knoxville, IEPA and IDOT was critical to ensure that the project followed schedule, scope and budget.
