Background
Nucor Steel Crawfordsville began operating in 1989. It produces sheet products for several industries.[2] The plant was the world's first commercial installation for Ultra-Thin Cast Strip (L)CS production via twin roll casting, which reduces energy consumption and environmental impact.[3]
In 2006, the plant was cited by the EPA for lack of control on hydrochloric acid emissions.[4]
