In order to give operators a birds-eye view of critical operations, this building is elevated a storey-and-a-half up on a structural steel mezzanine. The building itself is two storeys high, with the upper level significantly larger than the lower level. The walls and windows are tilted out by 30 degrees, with the result that operators have a 270 degree peripheral view, from high-in-the-sky.

To site build this structure, as the plant is busy and the station is elevated on a mezzanine, would have been cost prohibitive. NRB's modular solution features all steel construction, specially engineered with structural steel that carries the loads from not only the upper level to the lower level, but superimposed snow drift loads from the adjacent plant. Design features also include tilted walls, which prevent glare on the windows so operators have clear vision. All electrical, mechanical and plumbing features were built into the station at the NRB plant prior to shipping, so erecting on the site was straightforward and the control station was operational quickly and easily.
