A groundbreaking ceremony was held at the Blue Oval SK Battery Park in Elizabethtown, yesterday morning. Mayor Geoff Gregory stated, “It was very exciting because there was leadership from both Ford and SK On, which if you put those two together, makes BlueOval SK. We got to meet some people we haven’t met yet. The governor came down and delivered some remarks but, most importantly, everyone got to see the progress. The steel that was being erected down there was about 20% of the first building and there was a lot of steel already up. That gave people an idea of how big these buildings are going to be and how big this plant is going to be.” The 5.8-billion-dollar plant is on-schedule to begin production in 2025 and will be creating 5000 new jobs.
