In 1977, Howell Paving, Inc. was founded and reorganized into the primary construction company. Charles Adams orchestrated additional growth in the purchase of General Contractors, Inc. (Est. 1977) in 1998, the acquisition of Wabash Asphalt Company (Est 1967), and the founding of Prosser Construction Company in 1997.
