The petrochemicals plant is located in Monaca, just outside of Pittsburgh. It is scheduled to be finished early next year, and will focus on producing plastic made from byproducts of fracking for natural gas.
The construction of the plant created 5,000 jobs, with 600 of them expected to be permanent.
