Midstate Electric Cooperative broke ground in June 2004 on its new 55,000-sf LaPine, Ore., campus. Designed by Bend-based Steele Associates Architects and constructed by R&H Construction, a firm with offices in Portland and Bend, the facility will be the first LEED™-certified building in Central Oregon. The project will feature insulated concrete form exterior walls, low VOC-emitting finish materials, ground source heat pumps, construction waste reduction and recycling, automated HVAC systems, natural day-lighting, and the use of recycled content building materials. Completion is expected by May 2005.
