MMK Ohio Steel Plant Application Details

February 21st, 2008 by James Moss in Environment, Russia, USA

This link will take you to the Ohio EPA page for New Steel International, the working title of MMK’s proposed steel mill investment in Haverhill or Franklin, OH. Deep in the detail you will see estimates of the facility size. It’s not clear exactly how big the facility will be. The plan is to build the finishing end first (cold rolling capacity of 6,000 tons/day) followed by the meltshop (casting capacity of 12,000 tons/day). New Steel International is the name of the consulting company which filed the application on MMK’s behalf.

It sounds like the 1.5MT for the plant refers only to the finishing end. If the front end gets built it will be substantially larger. Comments relating to the Sun Coke Energy coke plant nearby seem to refer to the fact that the plant intends some form of iron making facility in addition to steel production.
