Geneva Steel

Company History: Geneva Steel was a steel mill located in Vineyard, Utah, United States, founded during World War II to enhance national steel output. It operated from December 1944 to November 2001 The Geneva Steel mill was constructed with federal funds from November 1941 to December 1944 by Columbia Steel Company and United States Steel Corporation (U.S. Steel). Vineyard, Utah, was chosen as the location for the new plant because iron ore, coal, limestone, and other resources necessary for primary steel making are located in nearby areas of Utah; and because Utah Valley is far inland, away from possible Japanese attack on the West Coast. Geneva Steel operated as a US government facility until June 1946, when it was sold for $47.5 million to U.S. Steel. Source: www.wikipedia.com
