President Trump to visit Beaver County ethane cracker plant next week
President Donald Trump will visit the Shell Chemicals ethane cracker plant in Potter Township, Beaver County on Thursday, according to the Beaver County Times.
With construction expected to finish soon on the $6 billion plant, Trump plans to tour the facility and will offer remarks touting his administration's economic accomplishments and support for America's expanding domestic manufacturing and energy production.
The Shell Chemicals plant will convert ethane to about 1.6 million tons of polyethylene a year.
The facility has 4,500 construction workers on-site and 101 cranes building the facility.
Once operational, the site will employ 600 permanent employees.
Trump last visited Pennsylvania for a rally on May 20.
