An engineering firm that has played a big role in the expansion of the Red River Valley has opened in Minot. Moore Engineering opened its first Minot office last month...and is currently preparing to move into its permanent location in Northwest Minot...in doing this...the company will grow...
(Brock Storrunsten, PE - Moore Engineering) "We will start off with about nine people and grow into our new office facility into 25 to 40 people."
Brock says Moore has served as the city of West Fargo's city engineers for decades...and that the company is looking forward to playing a role in the growth of this region as well...not just Minot -- but elsewhere around the area.
(Brock Storrunsten, PE - Moore Engineering) "We are going to do municipal engineering...that is what we want to do. We feel we can bring our expertise into the small communities around Minot. We can help them secure funding and provide projects for their needs. That is really what we do. If they have a water main issue or something like that we can try and go after MR9 money and funding and help get grants to help those communities afford the improvements and their needs."
The move from downtown Minot to their new location is expected in March.
