MIDLAND, MI-Two multi-million dollar industrial expansions have been announced in the metro area. Dow Corning will combine operations currently in Florida, California and Connecticut at a new $21.7 million facility in Williams Township near the city. Dow AgroSciences will invest $17 million to update a 1950s-era herbicide processing plant at Dow Chemical’s Michigan Operations site.

“Dow Corning and Dow AgroScience have long been partners in Michigan’s ongoing economic success,” Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm says. “These new quality jobs will provide a boost to both the local and state economies.”

Granholm says the Michigan Economic Development Corporation offered several incentives to the projects, which the governor says is expected to create 164 new jobs.
