Johnstown, PA
In 2000, the Johnstown Redevelopment Authority undertook an environmental assessment on the former Bethlehem Steel owned, brownfield site – the 11” Mill. Located adjacent to the Historic Cambria Iron Lower Works, this 240,000 sq. ft. former steel manufacturing facility built in the 1970’s was an attractive site for industrial development, and was targeted by Johnstown Welding & Fabrication as a potential site to expand their fabricated steel business. With the use of Environmental Protection Agency Brownfield Pilot funds, the Johnstown Redevelopment Authority retained Concurrent Technologies Corporation to perform the site characterization necessary to enable Johnstown Welding & Fabrication to fulfill its due diligence in the purchase of this property.
Employing over 100 people in the Lower Works Site, the newly restored 11” Mill now represents an $8.3 million investment in the community. CEO Bill Polacek was recognized by Ernst and Young and NASDAQ as the Western Pennsylvania Entrepreneur of the Year! |
