Corps Says it Will Dredge Cuyahoga River Following ArcelorMittal Testimony
Written by Sandy Williams
ArcelorMittal USA told a District court last week that the Cleveland steel mill will suffer “catastrophic harm” if the Cuyahoga River shipping channel is not dredged this fall.
ArcelorMittal told a U.S. district court that the sediment build-up in the shipping channel has caused cargo ships to lighten their loads resulting in a critically low inventory of iron ore pellets at the mill.
