Eastern Iowa firm Fabricators Plus of Muscatine may win a Staten Island sea wall contract after sending workers to aid Sandy relief. The initiative follows Nick Chrisopulos's Katrina relief work and could extend to repairing a metal shelter for oil barges and rebuilding Atlantic City rides, though a New Jersey nonunion contractor ban may affect progress.
