4/29/2014 � <br /> A 2010 inspection of the acility discovered acid spills inNie battery recharging <br /> area, selenium powder in the raw materials section and used oil on the ground <br /> throughout the facility. <br /> According to postings on the website of the United Steel Workers Local 418G, the <br /> last pieces of glass went through the plant on Jan. 29 and the removal of <br /> equipment started about a week later. Cleaning up the facility included removing <br /> all of the molten tin that the facility stored - the "Pilkington process" that the <br /> English-company pioneered involved floating molten glass on a bed of hot, liquid <br /> metal - and removing all of the broken glass that was caught after it was cut <br /> and dropped into a storage area below. <br /> Since the plant was completely full at the time it was shutdown, shipments of <br /> glass are expected to continue through September. <br /> The price of the land, which will be determined by a closed-bid successive <br /> auction, will include what remains of the plant and will be zoned for "general <br /> industrial." Details on the bid process will come in an offer memorandum shortly. <br /> http://www.mantecabulletin.com/section/l/article/104448/ <br /> 212 <br />
