I was under the impression that that site is where super-elite NBAF is going. At least somewhere around there. Maybe that is NBAF?!

Part of the impetus for the new feed mill is the selection of K-State/Manhattan as the site for the new $650 million National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) laboratory to be built by the Department of Homeland Security. NBAF will replace an aging BSL-3 (Bio-Safety Level 3) facility on Plum Island, NY. The site chosen for NBAF is the current site of the K-State Department of Animal Sciences feed mill which, like its Grain Science counterpart, is well beyond its useful life, Behnke said. Prior to completion of NBAF, the ASI feed mill must be replaced.

Wonder where they will put this thing then...

Answer:

Quote

Schulz noted that “the new feed mill will enhance K-State's already strong ability to support the Department of Homeland Security’s National Bio and Agro-defense Facility. With the new mill just across the street from NBAF, K-State can provide specialty livestock diets to support infectious disease experiments, oral vaccine studies and other trials under high level bio-safety controlled conditions. This work cannot be done anywhere else in the U.S.”

If this ends up being the tallest structure in MHK I will burn it to the ground.

That will be the new feed mill/biofuel facility at the grain science complex.

Right next to the already elite flour mill

The grain science dept doesn't have access to that land probably. And maybe they want to keep it all close together

I can ask one of my teachers or something

yoga-like_abana · « **Reply #17 on:** February 10, 2010, 08:31:44 PM »

99% sure its there land and its closer to all the livestock.

Think the new equestrian center is going somewhere in that area. It might be more towards Tuttle Creek Blvd. behind the retirement home though...

So many new, elite buildings in MHK.

Yeah but it's not there to feed any livestock. It's for experimental purposes and to show off to the industry and other schools etc...

According to the article, the new one will be shared by grain science and feed milling science or w/e. The article makes it sound like a really elite facility though.

Feed science is part of the grain science dept so yeah it's the same thing. And it should be one of the more high tech bio-refineries in the world, just as the flour mill is/was one of the most technologically advanced mills in world when it was finished in '06. Pretty elite
