Default It's on an island

I'm assuming this is on Bear Island.
You have to get the men & equipment out there as well as disposing of all the material. Barging it back is a huge expense especially if a crane is needed.
As a contractor who does island work it is significantly more expensive to have work done on an island compared to the mainland. The logistics alone not to mention transportation costs which can be quite expensive depending on the distance traveled.
If it’s not for Bear Island why would you post on this web site for a job in Mass.?
