LANSING -- From the Office of Governor Granholm:

Governor Jennifer M. Granholm today announced state support for 
improvements to Carbone of America’s Ultra Carbon Division at 900 
Harrison Street in Bay City. The $11.5 million project will add 65 new 
jobs and retain 126 jobs.

...

The project includes demolition and reconstruction of a functionally 
obsolete portion of the existing Carbone plant and purchase of new 
manufacturing equipment, including additional furnaces. Also included is 
reconstruction of a deteriorated section of Harrison Street between 32nd 
and 38th streets and underground utility improvements to accommodate the 
expansion.

"The use of the state’s brownfield incentives to support this renovation 
and expansion by an international leader in the electronics industry is 
one of the purposes for which this program was enacted," MEDC President 
and CEO James C. Epolito said. "We appreciate the support of our Bay 
City partners in making this project possible."
