Ohio Valley Steel Towns Face Uncertain Future

FOLLANSBEE, WV - MAY 04: A youth stands in the outfield during a baseball game as the Mountain State Carbon Coke Works plant is seen in the background on May 4, 2009 in Follansbee, West Virginia. The coke works plant has laid off over half of their employees due to a lack of orders. The future is uncertain for steel towns of the Ohio Valley and other areas as demand for steel is the lowest it has been in roughly 70 years. Operating utilization at U.S. steel mills has dropped to 43%, a level not seen since the Depression. (Photo by Rick Gershon/Getty Images)
