The Lower Colorado River Authority (“LCRA”) is a non-profit public utility providing wholesale power to over a million people in Texas. In December 2016, LCRA contracted Irby to construct 33.4 miles of 138kV transmission line from Lampasas to San Saba in central Texas.

With assistance from fellow Quanta Services subsidiary company North Houston Pole Line (Irby is also a Quanta Services subsidiary (PWR:NYSE)), the project was successfully delivered to LCRA in January 2018.
