The area between the Food Science building and Tureaud Hall has been quiet lately, but construction on a new AgCenter laboratory could resume as early as fall 2010.Roger Husser, AgCenter Facilities Planning director, said if the Louisiana Legislature approves funding, construction will begin in the fall. However, there’s “no way to know when it will be approved,” Husser said.
Utility work on the construction site was finished in fall 2009 and cost about $1.6 million. The entire project, once completed, will cost approximately $20 million.
