This grant provides federal funding to support the construction of a new dock conveyance system in Donaldsonville to transport iron ore pellets from port berths to a new ultra-low carbon steel manufacturing facility. “I worked to secure this funding because I know Louisiana’s ports are vital to keep our state and country’s economy moving,” said Dr. Cassidy. “Proud to have made this project possible to keep our state competitive.” ### | 1 | 2026-04-25T05:38:36Z | 2026-04-25T05:40:21Z |
