In April 2007, we proudly announced our preliminary 2006 full year results with strong year-on-year growth in sales volumes and revenues. With revenue expansion of 27% and net profit increase of 51%, 2006 2006 marked the best year in the financial history of Evraz. Looking at the results in more detail, revenues grewfrom US$6,508 million in 2005to US$8,292 million in 2006. Our consolidated EBITDA was up 43% to US$2,652 million from US$1,859 in 2005. Evraz Group improved pro- duction across all its steel plants. In particular, we realised synergies from the successful integration of our European rolling mill facilities, Palini e Bertoli and Vitkovice Steel, which produce higher value-added products. We saw net profit increase from US$918 million in 2005 to US$1,385 million in 2006. In addition, we experienced yet another year of strong cash flow generation which was primarily due to increased profit REPORT ANNUAL margins and more efficient working capital management. Our steel business saw crude steel production grow by 16% to a record high level of 16.1 million tonnes. Total steel sales volumes for the year soared by 25% to 16.0 million tonnes driven by organic growth, acquisitions in Europe and inventory reductions. Our leadership in the booming Russian long products market was strength- ened further in 2006 and together with the favourable pricing environment supported our strong revenue and profit growth. In addition, we successfully implemented a US$660 million capital investments programme focused on improving our cost efficiency and revamping the front end of our steel making facilities. EVRAZ GROUP S˛A˛ EVRAZ GROUP Our mining business also made significant progress. Strong self-coverage in iron ore (80%) and coking coal (84%) represents a solid platform that enables us to build and develop our steel business and significantly protects our earnings from fluctuations of raw material prices and third party availability. We commenced iron ore production at Izykhgol and Burluk mines in Siberia and acquired a new iron ore development licence with 3.3 billion tonnes of resources in the Urals. We increased our investment in our affiliate, OAO Raspadskaya, that acquired new quality coking coal resources to expand production. In late 2006, OAO Raspadskaya successfully publicly listed approximately 18% of its charter capital in a secondary offering that still remains Russia’s largest equity offering made by a coal company. A review of our plans to develop a stand-alone coal mine in Siberia (Neryungri) led to the disposal of the project in April 2007. The disposal resulted in a one-off loss of US$66 million that was written off in 2006. 2006 was another important year as we continued to grow our business through international acquisi- tions. Evraz made several strategic acquisitions that included the purchase of 100% of shares in Oregon Steel Mills, Inc. (USA) for US$2.3 billion. The deal, which officially closed in January 2007, gives us access 7 to the more attractive plate market and expanding pipe business in North America and makes Evraz the leading global rail producer. Other strategic transactions completed during the year include acquisition of 72.84% interest in Strategic Minerals Corporation (Stratcor), a world’s leading producer of vanadium alloys and associated specialty chemicals with assets in the US and South Africa, for US$125 million in August and 24.9% interest in Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation, one of the largest producer of steel and vanadium products in South Africa, for US$207 million in July. During recent years, we have also developed a very successful dialogue with debt investors. In 2006, we negotiated a syndicated loan of US$1.8 billion to fund the acquisition of Oregon Steel. Through 2006, Evraz’s GDRs appreciated by 37% outperforming the MSCI index growth rate. Moreover, in previous year we obtained further recognition from the investor community, when Institutional Investor magazine named us as the company “achieving the greatest progress in investor relations”. 2006 In the course of 2006, Evraz Group continued to focus on its corporate governance, with improved standards. In addition, we made some important changes to the Board, its committees and the senior management team. On the sustainable development aspects, Evraz Group made major efforts to address occupational and social needs of its employees and launched extensive social projects aimed at benefiting the people in the regions of Russia in which we operate. The record setting results achieved in 2006 could not have been possible without the hard work, commit- REPORT ANNUAL ment and dedication of our talented employees around the world. Evraz Group has always considered all of its employees as a tremendously important asset. This is why I would like to thank each and every one of them for their enormous contribution to the year’s outstanding overall results. While we are very pleased with the 2006 results, we are determined to grow shareholder value. We remain committed to continue to meet the objectives of our shareholders and at the same time serve the communities in every region and location where our company operates.

  • Advanced Manufacturing Labor Market Report 2018
    ADVANCED MANUFACTURING LABOR MARKET REPORT 2018 THE COLUMBIA-WILLAMETTE WORKFORCE COLLABORATIVE Working together to support and develop regional talent. In 2016, the Columbia-Willamette Workforce Collaborative (CWWC) published its first data report about the Advanced Manufacturing industry. The 2016 report affirmed Advanced Manufacturing as a high growth industry in the Portland-Vancouver Metro Area and led the Collaborative to revise the 2014 Manufacturing Workforce Plan to establish new goals for 2016-2018. Since the 2016 report, Advanced Manufacturing has added over 3,000 jobs, reaching some of the fastest growth rates for the sector in the 21st century. The impressive growth in recent years has spurred sector employment past pre-recession levels. A broad array of occupations experience considerable demand in Advanced Manufacturing, including engineers, machinists, managers, quality assurance techs, truck drivers, and software developers. The jobs being added in the Manufacturing industry are high wage, averaging nearly $22 per hour. Demand, however, far-outpaces the current available skilled workforce in the region. Advanced Manufacturing represents one of the most demographically diverse sectors in the Portland-Vancouver Metro Area. Age, however, remains a major concern for employers— nearly one-in-four of the sector’s workforce is 55 or older and set to retire in the next decade. While job growth is expected to slow over the next decade, looming retirements and career changes mean that an estimated 94,000 job openings will exist through 2027. Utilizing the labor market information found in this data report, the CWWC held a series of convenings with industry and stakeholders to again update the Manufacturing Workforce Plan and create new goals for 2019-2021.

  • Oregon Enterprise Zones
    PPROJECT SSYNOPSES:: OOREGON EENTERPRISE ZZONES June 2011 SALEM, OREGON draft draft PROJECT SYNOPSES: OREGON ENTERPRISE ZONES FOREWORD … have assembled this compendium of various examples, anecdotes, case studies, testimonials, and the like, with respect to how enterprise zones have decisively helped induce new investment and job creation in an Oregon community that has exhibited economic hardship. Many more synopses are possible. What’s here reflects essentially the convenient availability of textual material. Many more great projects deserve such accounts, including those in regions and in a number of enterprise zones going unrepresented in the present draft. A document of this type defies summary distillation. Rather, it offers the reader a sense of how diverse enterprise zone activity is, and how the zones help strengthen Oregon communities. Nevertheless, several observations are possible. Key takeaways • The objective is to incentivize (not subsidize) new development by “traded–sector” industries—that is, not firms competing locally in retail services. • In practice, this typically involves companies already operating in the zone, even as competitive, interstate opportunities arise for new facility development. • A notably recurring situation is a business that outgrows its space and needs to move, and it is considering attractions beyond Oregon, but a nearby enterprise zone encourages the firm to re-locate within the immediate region. • In addition, intra-firm competition arises, in which the enterprise zone gives an existing Oregon facility the edge in winning new capital investments within a large corporation, in which various facilities are competing for essentially the same project. • A common challenge that new and existing businesses face is a lack of selection among suitable sites, such that the enterprise zone is a way for the public sector to help offset or ameliorate the costs or hurdles arising from land–use or other regulations.

The EOS Site is located at 14400 N Rivergate Avenue, Portland, Oregon (see Figure 1). Oregon Steel Mills entered into a Voluntary Agreement with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) in June 2000 to complete enviromnental work at the upland portion of the Site. EOS acquired OSM in 2007 and has been working under the Voluntary Agreement since that time. Several phases of site investigation and cleanup evaluation have been completed with Cleanup Program oversight. With EPA agreement, DEQ selected the riverbank source control measure for the Site in 2014 (EPA, 2014). The design was approved in 2015 afterreview and input fromEPA (EPA, 2015). A determination that the selected riverbank source control measure has been constructed consistent with the approved design and no further action (NF A), other than long-term monitoring and maintenance, is required for shoreline source control is proposed for the Site which requires the approval of the DEQ Cleanup Manager. A public notice for the proposed determination is attached. Status of Other Source Control Pathways and Uplands A source control decision addressing stormwater run-offfrom the facility was issued by DEQ in December 2010.
