When a new bridge over the Red River was built by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation in 2019, it was damaged when the adjacent old bridge was blown up and demolished.

ODOT reviewed the completed bridge and “complained to contractor L&N Bridge, LLC of Antlers that part of the new bridge looked defective or damaged which caused L&N to install a new beam.

It resulted in an additional $500,000 in costs and led to a lawsuit by the bridge contractor L&N Bridge, LLC against Energetic Services LLC, Austin Powder Company and Terpo Seismographic Services, Inc. The bridge contractor sued to recover the costs of repairing the new bridge.
