“I want to thank the administration for their support,” Kissee said. “It’s been a huge effort for everybody involved. The Duck Creek Community has been very welcoming and supportive of this project; they were the initial green light when we first started talking about this. I want acknowledge DAS Consultants and my team at the MCN Department of Agriculture and resources for the hard work.”

“Here at Tribal Construction, we have hired a construction management group at-risk [Thompson Construction, Inc.],” Emerson explains. “They are at-risk because they have a stringent timeline and at the end of this timeline if they are not complete with the project, they will be responsible for paying liquidated damages each day past the project.”

The facility will have state of the art equipment to process beef, pork, and even wild game including deer during season.
“This is something that our state needs especially our community,” Emerson said. “When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, there was a shortage of meat and a lot of processing plants throughout the nation closed down because COVID wreaked havoc with their employees. Everybody experienced the shortage when they went to buy meat and the prices were exceedingly high and shelves were empty. If we had this meat processing plant up and running, we could have helped the state and community.”
