Century Group Delivers Concrete OSHA VPP Sign to Calcasieu Nelson Entergy Station in Sulphur, Louisiana
The Nelson Entergy Station, a long standing energy source for southwest Louisiana and long standing member of the OSHA Voluntary Protection Plan organization and holder of the prestigious OSHA Star award for safety, has added a new facility south of Sulphur, Louisiana named Calcasieu Nelson Entergy Station.
It became obvious that in order to celebrate this new "addition to the Entergy family,” a monument should be erected to not only to celebrate the new location, but also display the prestigious OSHA VPP STAR award where it can be viewed by employees and the general public alike.
Initially, the Entergy Nelson Plant selected an OSHA VPP special precast concrete sign from the Century Group, Inc. for their main campus in Lake Charles, LA. According to David Brawner, Senior Maintenance Planner with Nelson Entergy, "it did not require a second thought to call the Century Group's Precast concrete signage/monument division to request and order their next VPP monument.”
Along with David Brawner and Chet Vincent, these two gentlemen formed a committee that worked with the Century Group to select the sign that would best "show off” this achievement and offer the company and its workforce the recognition it deserved.
Upon completion of the project, it was noted that Brawner and Vincent met with principles of the Century Group's precast concrete sign division where they offered their compliments and were overwhelmed with the finished product. Simply to explain the uniqueness of the Century Group's precast concrete construction team; lead by Harold Holyfield, incorporating a precast concrete sign into the existing landscape was "just awesome” the committee lamented.
