ALCAN - Lynemouth, Northumberland . . .
The Alcan Aluminium Smelter and Power Station at Lynemouth in Northumberland is a very important employer for the largely rural county of Northumberland.
There are currently concerns that one or both of the above facilities may close, with a potential loss of more than 600 jobs.
For that reason, discussions on the Alcan facilities deserve their own thread.
Lynemouth, where Alcan is located, is 'technically' outside the area covered by the "Newcastle Metro Area" Forum, being some three miles North of that forum's northerly limit of Ashington.
For that reason this Alcan Thread is being set up here in the North East England (sub-forum) "Communal Area" though I'm certain Alcan will also receive a periodic mention on the 'Jobs' or 'Ashington Area Developments' threads, on the Newcastle Forum.
However, THIS THREAD should be regarded as the main location for Alcan-related discussions.
