Is this separate from that? If so, ouch.

Hadfield said the closure could leave roughly 1,800 people without work, including employees who relocated or commute long distances, threatening the local economy built around the project.

“These people are going to be without employment, which means not getting paid, not covered with health insurance, unable to make their rent and unable to pay their mortgages, unable to make car payments,” Hadfield said. "It’s going to mean significant drain from the area.”

For Hadfield, the biggest concern isn’t just income; it’s health insurance.

“My wife has prescriptions that she has to get refilled on a monthly basis, and if we don’t have health insurance, she has to miss out on everything that she needs," she said.
