Environmental Improvement Project Continues Making Progress
Work continues at the Warrick Power Plant to install scrubbers on all four production units. It was nearly one year ago when Alcoa announced the $400 Million investment that will ultimately reduce the environmental impact of the Plant by more than 50%. The construction project will continue until 2010 with the first scrubber coming online in 2008.
These photos taken in June show progress on the first of two new “chimneys” that will be installed as part of the project. It will contain the exhaust flues for units 1, 2, and 3, and be 380' tall when completed – approximately the same height as the two shorter chimneys currently on site.
