(Washington D.C.) - La Porte has a super polluter on its hands.

That’s according to a nationwide group called the Environmental Integrity Project.

The group says it conducted a study of industries across the country and one of the biggest polluters

was Arconic formerly known as Howmet Castings and Services on E. Lincolnway.

The plant with hundreds of workers makes engine parts for jets and commercial aircraft.

The group lists Arconic as one of two “Super Polluters” in the Chicago area and six in the

state of Indiana.

Arconic was ranked 82 out of 100 industrial sites nationwide for pollution.
