US Steel Proposes Closures at US Steel Lorain and Lone Star Tubular
Written by Sandy Williams
US Steel indicated it may permanently close the Lorain Tubular No. 4 seamless mill, which has been idle since April 2015, as well as the No. 1 Electric-Weld Pipe Mill at Lone Star Tubular.
USW Local 1104, in Lorain, Ohio, was notified of the plan on December 14. The 90-day notice does not mean that US Steel will definitely close the line but it gives company the option to do so.
