Chandler, Ariz.
Covance is constructing a 300,000-sf animal testing laboratory in Chandler, Arizona. The facility broke ground in June of 2007 and is slated to begin operations in early 2009. Construction was temporarily halted by a lawsuit which called into question the building permit and zoning for the facility due to alleged non-public meetings between the City of Chandler and Covance. The case was dismissed in February of 2008, allowing construction to resume.
