Commissioner Tony Amadio Still Hopeful But Downplaying Pending Announcement Of Cracker Plant

Many Beaver Countians are eagerly anticipating a big announcement from Shell Chemicals regarding the proposed ethane cracker plant to be built in Potter Township. But in an interview with Beaver County Radio newsman Pat Septak, Beaver County Commissioner Tony Amadio says it’s possible that there may not even be an announcement. He says the company may decide to just keep going without saying anything until the plant’s opening. Amadio says when Shell first announced they they were considering Beaver County as a future site, it was a game-changer for him. He says he was planning to retire at the end of serving two terms but decided against that when he heard about Shell’s pending plans for the county.
