The School Sisters of St. Francis engaged General Capital Group, Bedrock Construction and Northtrack Construction to lead demolition efforts. WasteCap was tasked with providing third-party waste management services for salvage and recycling efforts.

You have given very essential data for us. It is excellent and good for everyone. Keep posting always. I am very thankful to you.
