The contractor on the Upper Deckers Creek Dam project is suing the project engineer.
Triton Construction Inc. of St. Albans, filed suit in Preston County Circuit Court against Gannett Fleming Inc., a Delaware corporation that has offices in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania.
Triton said GFI is liable for “damages caused by defective plans and specifications.” As a result, it took Triton 1,007 days to substantially complete the project — rather than the 518 specified in the contract, it says.
