From Portland IndyMedia:

"Hanson Concrete ( http://hansonpipeandprecast.com) is a subcontractor of UC Berkeley's Li Ka-Shing Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences at University Avenue and Oxford Way - which would provide a 70 percent expansion of the University of California-Berkeley's current Northwest Animal Facility. Tens of thousands of animals will suffer and die each year in the basement of the Li Ka-Shing Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences.

Hanson has contacts all over the country. Their West Coast Regional Headquarters is in Portland. Please let them know that assisting in construction of a facility that will include basement-level animal torture facilities with the assistance in construction of the Li Ka-Shing Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences at UC Berkeely is unacceptable.
