PVS Executive Vice President Tyler Owen led the tour and gave an overview of the company, which produces a variety of structural steel products for projects around the world.

The company, which is a member of the National Railroad Construction & Maintenance Association (NRC), has provided steel products for a number of bridges in the United States' rail network.

Other attendees on the tour included Donna Kush, VP of public affairs-Northern region at Union Pacific Railroad; Keith Siebels, VP of sales at PVS; and Lindsey Collins, VP of grassroots advocacy at the NRC.

PVS employs 130 people in its steel fabrication and metal processing operations. Situated on a 30-acre site, the company's property includes a 500,000-square-foot fabrication facility served by rail.
