KUDOS to ArcelorMittal Dofasco!

On Friday, I posted some video footage showing pretty horrible emissions coming from one of ArcelorMittal's steel coil forklifts. The problem was serious enough that the company's coil yard fronting on to Burlington Street was a hazy mess of emissions. The company's General Manager of Environment, Jim Stirling told me he would look into the problem. A ride past this am confirmed that the problem has been resolved. Nice job ArcelorMittal - thanks for taking swift action on this problem. Hopefully timely maintenance of equipement like this forklift will prevent these kinds of issues in the future.
