Last Coil Produced at AK Steel Ashland
Written by Sandy Williams
AK Steel Ashland rolled its final coil on Monday, Nov. 11, at 10:14 a.m. The Kentucky plant is expected to close its doors for good on Dec. 31.
“Everyone was walking the line, and as we walked the line, everyone watched it,” said Brian Boggs, an electronics technician at the mill, in a comment to The Daily Independent. “That just shows the pride people have in the job. It’s world class. Even today, we’re setting records as we shut down. AK Steel will miss Ashland Works.”
