Together we can make a difference
C. A. (Marc) Marchand was involved in City of Moses Lake projects for many years. He was an army veteran until the end of WW2. He relocated from North Dakota to this area to work on the building of Grand Coulee Dam then started Marchand Construction in 1964 in Moses Lake. Many of the local roads, sidewalks, sewers and infrastructure projects in Grant and several other counties in the state were constructed by Marchand Construction, recognizable by the two-toned green vehicles. His legacy is represented by the two-toned green buildings of our current distribution center situated on the land that was donated by the Marchand Charitable Trust.
