Interstates Companies recently received three prestigious construction awards from the Associated Builders and Contractors of Iowa during the association’s annual “Excellence in Construction” banquet.

Interstates won the 2007 Project of the Year award in the Electrical, Commercial, and Industrial Over $2 Million category.
The award was presented based on Interstates’ work on the Heartland Corn Products ethanol plant in Winthrop, MN. This prestigious honor for excellence in construction was awarded to Interstates for earning the most points in the evaluations.
The Heartland project also won an Award of Excellence and recognition as the Outstanding Electrical Construction project for 2007. Criteria for these honors included complexity of the project, attractiveness, unusual challenges, innovation, safety, and budget compliance. This was Interstates’ 17th award from ABC of Iowa.
