   Ilva steel plant blamed for spike in child cancer cases in Taranto
   
   The Local reported that a report into cancer rates in the region shows the rate of cancer among children in Taranto, southern Italy - home to the Ilva steel plant - is 30 percent higher than the national average. The most alarming figures relate to the city of Taranto, where a high concentration of factories, including the Ilva site, has had a negative impact on the local air quality. Cancer of the lungs or bronchus was the most common variety.
   
   As well as the elevated risk of tumours, children under 14 living close to the polluting Ilva plant are three times more likely than their peers to suffer from asthma or respiratory problems.
   
   Airtum (the Italian Association of Cancer Registries) analysed data from between 2006 and 2011 to create the report, which was made public on Saturday.
   
   The latest figures confirm earlier data from June which showed high rates of lung cancer, and also raised concerns over the adequacy of the local health system; the lack of a specialist pulmonology department in Taranto's main hospital, for example.
   
   Taranto's local governor Michele Emiliano has repeatedly called on Matteo Renzi's government to do more to guarantee the health of Apulian residents, while the city's mayor Ippazio Stefàno, who is a doctor, said in June that residents were not kept informed of the risk to their health, which led to widespread anxiety. He said "We want to know the real levels of emissions in order to protect public health. Italian standards are respected here, but European and international standards are much more stringent.”
   
   The Ilva site in Taranto, which provides work for around 16,000 people, has been under special administration since 2013 after the the Riva family who ran the site were accused of failing to prevent toxic emissions including carcinogenic particles from spewing out across the town.

   Prima idee. Ik ben het 100% met eens.
   
   Deze vervuilde plant moet Arcelor niet eens willen overnemen!
   
   Maar ja, de heer L. Mittal kennende.... (hij had in het verleden een neus voor koopjes, en is zo wel het grootste staalbedrijf ter wereld geworden.)
   

   He Voda,
   
   Het artikel over grotere gevallen van kanker onder de kinderen in de buurt van de fabriek is niet echt gunstig, om het zacht uit te drukken.
   
   Bedankt voor alle nieuwsberichten te plaatsen.
   
   Success,

   Een hele slechte zaak!!!
   
   Topman Mittal benadrukte in het gesprek met Jefferies de voordelen van een overname van Ilva en zei onder meer dat de investering gepaard gaat met lage kosten en dat zijn bedrijf kan profiteren van de staalproducten met een hoge toegevoegde waarde.

   Ik zet er zo mijn vraagtekens bij.
   
   Deze schijnbaar verblindde koop van een fabriek waar heel veel lijken in de kast zullen zitten, waar al een voorproefje van naar buiten kwam i.v.m. het aantal gevallen van kanker in de omgeving van de fabriek kan haast geen goed nieuws betekenen voor Mittal.
   
   Het feit dat men in het bestuur van GS zit geeft men het gevoel onschendbaar te zijn...
   
   Success iedereen en Voda, wederom bedankt voor ons/me up to date houden met de nieuwsberichten.

   Uncertainty over Teesside steel plant clean-up costs pledge
   
   Sunder and Echo reported that the man leading the taskforce to find a future for the SSI Steelworks site on Teesside has refused to re-iterate a promise that the Government would meet the clean-up costs at the plant.
   
   In an interview to be shown on BBC’s Inside Out program, Lord Michael Heseltine was asked three times to confirm the commitment. In February Lord Heseltine, appointed to lead the regeneration of the area, said that the cost of cleaning up the area would be met by central government. During a visit to the area he said that “The money to clean up the site will be what it costs. Central government will pay the clean-up costs and underwrite them whatever the bill comes to.”
   
   But with no progress over the last seven months, local residents fear that central government does not plan to deliver on Lord Heseltine’s promise. The clean-up of the site is being delayed due to a dispute between the administrator and three Thai banks over a GBP 350 million loan made to SSI. It is estimated it could cost as much as a billion pounds. In the interview, Lord Heseltine also said the government couldn’t give a ‘blank undertaking’ to meet clean-up costs. Asked if he had been wrong to make the pledge in February, he replied that “No no. I think in the context that I was talking it was perfectly reasonable.”

   More kids hospitalized in Taranto after ILVA emissions
   
   ANSA reported that hospital admittance for respiratory illnesses in children has gone up roughly 25% in two neighbor hoods in the southern city of Taranto, an epidemiological study on the effects of industrial toxins released by the ILVA steel plant on the health of residents showed Monday.
   
   The study of 321,356 local residents conducted by Puglia and Lazio public health authorities said there is "a cause-and-effect relationship between industrial emissions and health damage" in children aged 0-14 from the Tamburi neighbor hood, whose hospital stays have increased by 24%, and in children from the Paolo VI neighbourhood, whose hospital stays have increased by 26%.
   
   The study also documented a 71% rise in lung cancer in people most exposed to plant emissions, and that exposure to the emissions caused a 4% spike in the mortality rate.

   JSW Steel in race for Italian steel giant Ilva – Business Line
   
   Business Line reported that JSW Steel has decided to partner a consortium of bidders led by state run Cassa Deposit e Prestiti, for the Ilva plant in Italy and that SW Steel Managing Director Sajjan Jindal and a 15-member team of senior officials has been ascertaining the prospects of buying a stake.
   
   As per report “JSW Steel will pick up a 15-20 per cent stake in the consortium from Turkish steel-maker Erdemir, which backed out just before the bid was placed by the consortium.”
   
   The Ilva plant was hit by a scandal for flouting environmental norms; Lucchini went bust in 2012. Both have been placed under special administration by the Italian government to avoid closure.

    JSW Steel joins CDP to bid for Ilva steel plant - Report
    
    Reuters, citing a source with knowledge of the matter, reported that JSW Steel Ltd has joined one of two investor groups vying to take over Italy's loss-making Ilva steel plant. As per report, JSW has signed an agreement with Italian state lender CDP, businessman Leonardo del Vecchio's holding company and steelmaker Arvedi to make the bid.
    
    A second source said the Indian firm had confirmed its interest in joining the bid, but did not know if a formal agreement had been signed.
    
    Italy's government has been trying to find a bidder for the plant, Europe's largest by output capacity, since taking it over last year in a bid to save jobs and clean up its polluting factories. Judges put key parts of it under special administration in 2012 following accusations it had caused serious health problems in the surrounding Puglia region in southern Italy.
    
    The world's largest steel producer Arcelor Mittal has also offered to buy Ilva, in a joint bid with Italy's Marcegaglia.
    
    The sale is now expected to be completed in early 2017. Officials from the Italian environment ministry had been due to deliver their verdicts on the bidders' proposals by Nov. 13.

    Ik heb dat al eerder verwoord in deze draad. Een hele slechte zaak denk ik!
    
    Mittal zou het voor een zacht prijsje kunnen kopen, met misschien zelfs toezeggingen van de Italiaanse regering!
    
    Maar wat een vervuilende, erbarmelijk slechte deal zou dat zijn! Lees o.a. over al die kanker gevallen daar, ook eerder genoemd.
    
    Mittal moet daar totaal niet in investeren. Hij is al de grootste staal"boer" ter wereld!

    Riva family to pay nearly EUR 1.3 billion in ILVA compensation
    
    ANSA reported that the Riva family, former owners of the troubled ILVA steelworks that is now managed by government-appointed commissioners, has agreed to pay out nearly 1.3 billion euros in compensation for the environmental clean-up and plant turnaround undertaken by the government, Italian Premier Matteo Renzi announced from his office in a live online broadcast late Thursday evening.
    
    The Riva family on Wednesday confirmed Renzi's announcement, saying they would pay out "1.3-1.4" billion euros.

    Mr Sajjan Jindal confirms JSW joining consortium to buy Ilva steel plant
    
    Reuters reported that Mr Sajjan Jindal, the billionaire chairman of the metals to cement conglomerate JSW Group confirmed that JSW Steel is in a consortium looking to buy the beleaguered Ilva steel plant in Italy.
    
    Mr Jindal told Reuters on the sidelines of an event in the eastern state of Bhubaneswar that "We are working on it. It will not need much investment, declining to elaborate.”
    
    JSW Steel, the flagship steel company of the group, has been eyeing the loss-making Ilva steel plant for several months. Reuters reported on Wednesday that JSW Steel had signed an agreement with Italian lender CDP, businessman Leonardo del Vecchio's holding company and steelmaker Arvedi to make the bid.
    
    The bid is expected to be made by a consortium called Acciaitalia, which means Steel is Italy. JSW will hold 35 percent, Arvedi 10 percent and the remaining stake will be distributed among two more players, said a source who declined to be named.

    Ilva 2016 output rises, owner expected in March
    
    Ilva, the Italian integrated steelmaker currently in administration, sold 5.8 million-5.9 million tonnes of finished products in 2016, up 1mt from 2015 but significantly below its installed capacity, Kallanish learns from trade union sources.
    
    The company, which controls the integrated site of Taranto, is now awaiting a decision regarding its new owner which should be official by the end of March. Once the new owner is announced, it will take full control of the company by June.
    
    As reported, the two bidders for the company are two joint ventures led by ArcelorMittal and Arvedi respectively.
    
    This week the market is expecting the official result of the analysis of the environmental plans by the bidders. Results regarding the ongoing legal proceedings against the Riva family – former owners of the company – are expected in the next few months.
    
    Solely at Taranto Ilva can produce more than 11mt of crude steel.

    A senior trader in the market confirms the price levels, but notes that buyers today in Italy would not accept anything above €520/t cif, which only Indian mills can do potentially. “Ilva is officially offering above €520/t ex-works in the domestic market, but anything above €520/t on imports is not competitive for service centres and importers,” he adds.
    All sources note that the developments at Ilva, expecting a new owner to take full control in June this year, will be key for the market.
    
    “If Ilva goes back to producing 10 million tonnes/year for us [… traders] it will be tough, if it remains at the current 6m t/y there will be need to supply the market from outside of the EU,” the source concludes.

    Hot news!
    
    Ilva publishes tender to sell Tunisian assets
    
    An international tender has been published by the Tunisian service centre and rolling mill Ilva Maghreb and Tunisacier, both subsidiaries of Italian steel maker Ilva through its entity Ilva Commerciale. The three companies are in liquidation.
    
    Ilva began to look for a buyer for both companies last year, as reported. Ilva Maghreb is a service centre while Tunisacier is a rolling mill for flat products both located in the free-trade zone near Bizerte in the north of the country. The two assets occupy the same 50,000 square metres area but the operations can be acquired separately.
    
    Both facilities have access to a logistics platform, which is mostly used by Tunisacier. This facility, whose output is mainly destined to exports, produces cold rolled coil with an output ranging between 50,000-200,000 tonnes/year. Ilva Maghreb, processes sheets and strips providing cut-to-length services. The operation has a capacity of around 20,000 t/y, sources in the industry say.
    
    The deadline for presentations is 28 February 2017. Offers must reach the official liquidator Adly Ben Rhouma in Tunisia by 1500 hours local time, the international tender seen by Kallanish says. Only offers with a bank guarantee covering 1% of the total amount intended to be paid for both companies will be considered, the official document says.
