Site Prep Underway for NBAF in Manhattan

Our eyes are focused towards Manhattan these days as Kansas State University and the City of Manhattan begin site preparation for NBAF. According to officials in Manhattan the preparations are moving along pretty well.

KSU President Kirk Schulz told members of Solomon Valley Economic Development and the Beloit Chamber of Commerce the new National Bio Agro-Defense Facility will make a significant impact on Manhattan and communities as far away as 100-150 miles as support businesses will be looking for available buildings and land for development.

If all goes as planned construction on the NBAF facility could begin late this summer.
