Serving the Lebanon Community
Several road improvement projects near the future Eli Lilly and Company campus are planned by the IEDC/Pure Development to provide safer and more efficient access to area homeowners and personnel working on the project. The contractors performing this work will ensure access to homeowners.
More than 170 workers joined members of the Purdue Extension and Farm Bureau at our Sept. 20 Safety Meeting to recognize Farm Safety Week, dedicated to driving safely around farming equipment.

Work on the 600-acre Lilly campus is progressing swiftly, with mass grading and soil conditioning underway to create retention basins, reach desired building elevations and create earthen berms along some parts of the site perimeter.
Boone County first responders have been able to take advantage of the homes left on the Lebanon Project property to take part in training exercises to strengthen their responses and abilities to support the community. These structures were used before being removed for the site’s earth grading work. Boone County SWAT team members practiced various barricaded gunman and hostage scenarios at one of the properties prior to its demolition. Firefighters from Lebanon and Zionsville both had the opportunity to practice their search and rescue techniques and site ventilation techniques.
Contractors came seeking business.
On Wednesday, June 7, Fluor was the golf cart sponsor of the annual Boone County Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament at Ulen Country Club in Lebanon, Indiana. The event was a great way to introduce Fluor to the area business community and communicate how to learn more about the new Lebanon Project and local contractor/supplier opportunities.
