Scarnati Secures Funding for Brockway Clay PlantPROJECT POTENTIAL 60 NEW JOBS WARREN—Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati announced today that he has secured $750,000 in state funds to aid in the development of Brockway Clay Plant in Brockway, Pennsylvania. The project will create approximately 60 new jobs. "I am pleased to have been able to secure this funding to bring much needed family-sustaining jobs back to this area," Scarnati said. "This is a tremendous boost to the Jefferson County region and I am proud to have been a part in seeking this opportunity." Scarnati mentioned that the state assistance is made up of a grant and loan and will be used by North Central Enterprise for site preparation, including water, sewage, as well as road access. "This is a wonderful example of what can be accomplished when state and local leaders work together for the betterment of an entire region," Scarnati added. "Without question, this will be a shot in the arm to communities struggling during these difficult economic times." The grant and loan were approved by the Commonwealth Financing Authority, created by the General Assembly in 2004 to spur job creation in Pennsylvania.
