Just dropping you a note to inform how impressed we were (and are) with Northern. Northern fielded a top level team and we look forward to having them back soon.

One of the crew mentioned the order of priority was safety, quality, production. Wonderful principals to work by but I can assure you their production was nothing short of impressive!

I wanted to pass along a sincere thank you. Your team cleared the power lines in my yard yesterday and I’m very impressed! They even swept my driveway…not a trace of debris left behind. Well done.

I have always been very impressed by the work that NCI has done for us. I want to thank all those who took part in this year’s ROW Clearing. You all made it a safe and efficient year.

Knowing that MXP Spread 5 had tremendous amounts of challenges which included the difficult mountainous terrain, labor pool shortage, working off winch lines, and compounding all with adverse weather conditions. Northern Clearing met all these challenges and more with success.

Occasionally on a project you are fortunate enough to have a great working relationship with a contractor’s site leadership team, this was one of those projects. Their staff worked closely with our team every day to make sure the project was a success. I can honestly say that working with Northern Clearing for the past three years on the GNTL project has been a pleasure and I look forward to more opportunities in the future.

From navigating the environmental compliance requirements to meeting the production schedule they performed well and met expectations. All of this was completed while establishing a great safety culture and achieving an outstanding safety record on this project. The owners of NCI are also very customer driven and promote this attitude to their field supervision thus creating a positive team atmosphere on the jobsite.
