Here in IL our State dot (IDOT) mandate that all steel for highway projects be US Steel, and have for a long time.
However, some Federal and most Commercial projects don't see it that way.
There is a trans. continental pipeline project from Conico Phillips here in Wood River,headed to Canada using Steel from India.
US Steel, Granite City plant is only 10,15 miles at most and mostly dormant for the last few years.
Talk about Outrage, there were times the highway patrol and other agency's had to keep the peace with all out War close to the boiling point.
But The politicians and others kind 'a quieted it down and the project moves on.
What a mess we have gotten ourselves into in this country.
