Scoular Expands in Illinois:FIRST MAJOR EXPANSION SINCE SCOULAR BEGAN OPERATING FORMER JOHNSON GRAINELEVATOR

摘要

The Scoular Co., Omaha, NE, in the fall of 2013 completed a 640,000-bushel jumpform concrete tank at its Waverly, IL rail terminal (217-435-2361). It was the first major expansion at the site since Scoular began operating the former Johnson Grain facility in 2010.According to Scoular Vice President Curt Engel, frequent loading and unloading was taking a toll on the facility's collection of upright steel tanks. As a result, employees were using a 7-million-bushel flat storage building as their workhouse for rail loading, which was highly inefficient for that purpose.
