July 27, 2007 (Evansville, WI ) - Thank you for visiting the North Prairie Productions website, your resource for information, updates and news about the development of the Evansville biodiesel fuel facility.
Following our official groundbreaking ceremony in March, the biodiesel project experienced some unexpected delays related to financing, finalizing of construction plans and the completion of due diligence activities. While the preliminary stages of the project moved along smoothly, the delays experienced during the past few months caused considerable frustration in addition to the postponement of the initial starting date for construction.
We are pleased to report that these items have been addressed and the construction process is now ready to begin. Starting the week of July 30, 2007, Boldt Construction, the general contractor, will have its construction trailer on site and Mann Bros., Inc. will begin site preparation and excavation. Shortly after that, site work for foundations and underground mechanicals will start and will continue for approximately two months.
While the completion date of the project will be delayed due to the unforeseen holdups in the process, we are continuing to work with Boldt Construction to determine how the timeline for completion of the project will be affected. We will keep you apprised of updates on these and all other details as this information becomes available
Thanks to the ongoing support of our investors, the City of Evansville and the project team, Evansville will soon be home to a facility that will provide consumers throughout the region with a safe and reliable alternative fuel source.
Solid progress is being made as we move forward into construction, and so we invite you to check back often to stay informed about what’s happening. If you have questions or would like any other information, please feel free to contact a North Prairie Productions representative by calling 877-299-2435 or e-mail us at info@npnrg.com.
