The final cleanup of a former plant site in Manitowoc will happen. 

During his State of the Cities address last night, Mayor Justin Nickels announced the Environmental Protection Agency is awarding the city a share of a Brownfield grant to help clean up the rest of the Mirro property on Washington Street. 

The $1.9 million will be used to clean up the Washington St. side of the plant property including the demolition of the final concrete building slab, excavation of soil, and the demolition of the utility tunnel network.
