KELLY AWARDED CHS REFINERY CLEAN FUELS PROJECT

HOUSTON, TX -- January 13, 2004 -- JH Kelly, LLC was awarded the next phase of construction for the Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel Clean Fuels Project at the CHS Refinery in Laurel, Montana. JH Kelly has been working at the refinery since last August when the underground and foundation portion of the project began. With the underground phase finishing this week, the next phase was awarded with construction to continue next month. The next phase includes the structural steel piperack; compressor building erection, including overhead bridge
crane / setting of compressor; and erection of a reactor access platform structure.

“A fine team has been put together including CHS, Stone & Webster, and JH Kelly. I expect nothing short of another safe and successful project”, said John Price, CHS Refinery project manager. “We are very proud of the work that our staff and crews have completed to date, and are pleased to be able to continue working at the CHS refinery,” said Dave Senko, JH Kelly vice president.

JH Kelly recently completed construction of the Low Sulfur Mogas Clean Fuels Project for the ExxonMobil Refinery in Billings, Montana. On that project, JH Kelly worked for about a year with peak manpower at over 250 while incurring no OSHA recordable injuries. “We worked another year in the Billings area executing significant refinery work – all with no recordable incidents. The safety performance and workmanship provided by the local building trades’ craftsmen has been excellent. For the ExxonMobil project, we will submit and expect to win a national award for our safety performance there: and we expect to continue that same level of performance into 2004,” added Senko.
