Shell said it would reach a decision in 18 to 24 months.<\/p>\n<p>Shell Chemical LP signed a land option agreement with Horsehead Corp. in March\u00a0to evaluate a site in Beaver County, where it could build the plant. The company chose a 300-acre area near Monaca, close to the Conway Railyards and about 15 miles from the Pittsburgh International Airport.<\/p>\n<p>According to the American Chemistry Council, the potential economic impact for the Pittsburgh region\u00a0is $3.2 billion in investment that would lead to the creation of more than 10,000 permanent jobs in the chemical and supplier industries. Furthermore, Shell expects 10,000 construction jobs would result from site development.<\/p>\n<p>The petrochemical\u00a0plant would chemically \u201ccrack\u201d ethane into ethylene, the raw material used to make plastics and other materials.
