live Internet auction broadcasting services, today announced that
online bidding will be available for the largest one-owner contractor
auction in history. The auction will be managed by Alex Lyon and Son
Auctioneers, which is headquartered in Syracuse, NY. CAT and Volvo
equipment will be offered at auction Fri., Jan. 19 at 9:30 a.m. near

The equipment being auctioned was used to complete the Fernald Closure
Project, one of the largest environmental restoration projects in
United States history. Each piece of equipment used in the project was

Department of Energy (DOE). All equipment was inspected on schedule and
received routine maintenance at a special shop that was built on the
job site.<br>

auction," said Jack Lyon of Alex Lyon and Son. "This auction is not to
be missed! We are thrilled to work with Proxibid to provide online
bidding to everyone who wants to participate in this event. We
anticipate a lot of online bidding for this auction, which will make
