A Little History

The Missouri Land Improvement Contractors Association (LICA) was founded in 1941 by a group of, primarily, terracing contractors in an attempt to promote the proper management of soil and water, with the ultimate goal being the preservation of Missouri’s precious topsoil. Other contractors soon began to take notice of those Missouri contractors’ success and formed their own LICA state chapters, resulting in the founding of the National LICA in 1951. Although LICA’s underlying activity is still topsoil conservation, the organization has undergone many transformations over the years. Today, we represent construction companies from across the state which perform the following types of work:

Road Boring/Drainage
Septic Systems
Sewer/Water/Underground Utilities
Site Prep./Development
Sod Farm/Seeding/Installation
Terraces/Waterways
Trucking/Hauling
Water Management
