Iowa Central Community College broke ground this week on what will become its new Biofuels Testing Laboratory on the west side of Fort Dodge. Iowa Central President Jesse Ulrich says it will be a welcome addition to the campus and it’ll be the only independent biofuels testing lab in the country.
He says the planned state-of-the-art lab will be the end result of very humble beginnings.
The land on which the lab will be built didn’t cost Iowa Central anything, as it had been occupied by a Casey’s convenience store.
The lab should be ready for move-in within a year.
