Coalition raises concerns as development proceeds without protections for workers or residents
GONZALES, LA — Representatives from the Good Neighbors Louisiana coalition dropped in on Hyundai’s offices in Gonzales to present the company with a list of demands regarding its proposed $5.8 billion steel mill in Donaldsonville, as well as comments filed with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) about the company’s failure to establish safeguards on toxic dust from transportation and construction.
The delegation included representatives from the United Steelworkers (District 13), the NAACP (Louisiana State Conference), the Sierra Club Delta Chapter, and the Sunrise Community Group. During their visit, the delegation made contact with Hyundai staff to deliver paper copies and confirm receipt of the documents.
