Hamilton steelmaker Stelco sold to Cleveland-Cliffs for $3.4B

Hamilton-based steelmaker Stelco Holdings Inc. is set to be acquired by U.S.-based Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. for $3.4 billion Cdn.

Stelco said it has agreed to sell all issued and outstanding common shares for $70 per share to the Ohio-based steel producer.

Stelco chief executive Alan Kestenbaum said he is confident Cleveland-Cliffs will remain a reliable supplier to its customers while maintaining Stelco’s “stature and reputation in Canada and maintaining our Canadian national interests.”

Currently, Stelco maintains two major steelmaking facilities in Ontario — one each in Hamilton and Nanticoke.

CBC Hamilton reached out to Stelco for an interview. However, the company said no one was available for comment.

Stelco said in a news release that as part of the agreement, it will keep its headquarters in Hamilton and build on its existing 1,000-employee footprint in Canada. It will also retain Canadian representation on its management team.

The news release also said Cleveland-Cliffs will continue Stelco’s current community commitments, including collaboration with McMaster University and the CanmetMATERIALS research centre, and maintain the existing research chairs with McMaster. The company will also retain its partnership with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Forge FC, and its 40 per cent equity interest and the master lease of Tim Hortons Field.

Getting Nanticoke ‘the real gem,’ expert says

Kestenbaum acquired Stelco in 2016 after the company went into creditor protection in 2004 and was sold as a subsidiary to U.S. Steel Co. in 2007. It then returned to creditor protection in 2014 before signing an agreement to be acquired by Kestenbaum’s Bedrock Industries in late 2016.

Cleveland-Cliffs president and CEO Lourenco Goncalves said Kestenbaum was able to turn an “underperforming asset under previous ownership into a very cost-efficient and profit-oriented company.”

He said the deal “keeps national interests at the forefront and recognizes the importance of the workforce,” noting Stelco respects the union representing…

7 Budget-Friendly Towns in Pennsylvania for Retirees

One of Pennsylvania‘s favorite sons, Fred Rogers, famously said, “Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.” Therefore, when it is time to retire, view it through the lens of exciting possibilities. Choosing an environment that benefits your wallet and social life is vital. Pennsylvania provides you with both. All forms of retirement income are tax-free in the Keystone State, and some seniors qualify for rebates on housing costs and property taxes. These perks come in addition to living amongst part of the country’s most beautiful communities.

Lancaster

Lancaster is one of the state’s most walkable cities, with easy access to shopping, parks, and medical care. Its median house costs $290,000, and its connection to natural resources is unparalleled. With a vibrant history, this town is one of the most visited in the state. However, its expansive rural farmland maintains residents’ privacy and safety.

Home to the largest Amish community in the US, Lancaster defines benevolence and goodwill toward neighbors. Its proximity to Philadelphia and Baltimore allows residents to experience the urban amenities but return to their quiet oasis at day’s end.

Established in 1730, Lancaster Central Market is the oldest continuously operated shopping area in the country. It is always in need of volunteers to assist, and it is a great place to socialize, make new friends, and find amazing deals.

President Yudichak embarks on new era at Luzerne County Community College

Jul. 7—NANTICOKE — Sitting in his office overlooking the Luzerne County Community College campus, new President John Yudichak recalled a conversation he had with his father nearly 50 years ago.

Yudichak, 54, began his tenure as LCCC’s eighth President on July 1, taking the helm of the largest and most accessible institution of higher education in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

“We were sitting on our front porch in Plymouth Township,” Yudichak said, talking about his father, Joe Yudichak. “I noticed a building being built across the river — it was LCCC.”

Yudichak noted the structure was going up in the middle of otherwise barren land, and he was surprised to learn that it was a community college under construction.

“I knew, even at that young age, that some major change was coming to the area,” Yudichak said. “I remember that I thought how great it would be to someday work there or in higher education somewhere.”

Yudichak would go on to become a state lawmaker for 24 years — 12 in the House of representatives and 12 more in the state Senate.

During that time, Yudichak compiled an extensive record of leadership, business and educational experience which, along with his knowledge of the needs of the area, he feels all will help LCCC continue its mission of providing a high-quality education to the community.

Yudichak’s journey began on Kosciusko Street at Greater Nanticoke Area High School, then to Penn State University and on to Harrisburg and the state legislature, eventually returning him just up Kosciusko Street to LCCC.

“I’m just getting acclimated, but I do know we have a great staff and faculty here,” Yudichak said. “My plan is to meet them all, and I look forward to working with them to keep LCCC moving forward.”

Yudichak said LCCC will always be “affordable and accessible” and it will continue to offer…

NANTICOKE, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU)— A water main break early Saturday has some residents waking up to discolored water.

According to a post made by the Nanticoke Fire Department, a water main break occurred on Locust Street just around 3:00 p.m.

A release made by the company said that repairs are beginning at 9:00 a.m. and will take approximately six hours to complete.

Officials say if you reside in the affected area you may experience discolored or cloudy water, low water pressure, or no water at all.

Also, if you experience discolored water when restored, run the cold water for 3 to 5 minutes until the water is clear.

Pennsylvania American Water states that the repairs should be made by 3:00 p.m.
