Then he is a smart sumbitch, because they will be using scaffolds for as long as the place is there.
There are some jobs that will be going on there, that scaffolds are the only thing that will work.
Any type of safety supply , like safety harnesses, lifting straps, cables, also plumbing supply and fluid controls.

That is a cool photo there, I guess they are Scottish Marines or something? If they are setting up a shooting position, it seems really exposed though.

Was told today that the average pay was going to be. 70,000. That sounds too high to me, but I hope it's right. This area needs some help.

Its going to be that much easily, but when they start offering jobs at $9 or so dollars per hour base pay, some people are going to be a little confused by that, those types of places use production bonuses as the biggest part of the pay, its a motivational factor.
A guy's base pay might be $9 Per hour will realistically be earning $25 or more.
Steel mills and aluminum plants do it that way a lot of times.

1450 jobs for Ellick


Plant's gonna be in Pineville...frick Ellick

Correction, plant will be in Kolin...frick Pineville...


But really, as someone who grew up 1 mile from the paper mill and had many family friends lose their job when it shut down, this is great news for the Cenla.

It's about time Loozianna started catching up. Alabama got our huge aluminum plant way back in the 1950's.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — A metals manufacturer will locate in central Louisiana a proposed $1.2 billion aluminum mill that would hire 650 or more workers to supply aluminum for automobile bodies.
