This massive vessel was delivered to the new Nova Chemicals plant under construction in St. Clair Township recently, thanks to a collaboration of employees, contractors and local agencies. The polyethylene “stripper,” which is 165 feet (50 metres) in length and weighs 345 tonnes, is the largest single component of the new facility. Once installed within the structure on Rokeby Line its overall height will be close to that of a 30-storey building. Submitted Photo
