Seafood success: Construction nearly complete on Long John Silver's

For decades, travelers along Route 65 in Beaver County have passed by the Long John Silver's restaurant in the East Rochester shopping plaza. It was a steady sight until about four months ago , when the building was torn down and fencing went up around the property. Those passing by could only question what was going to replace the building as they watched digging, framing and other construction there. Now the signs are up and construction is nearing completion on the project, a newly revamped and modernized Long John Silver's at 750 Ohio River Blvd. The business will no longer include an A&W restaurant component, but it does have a redesign flipping the drive-thru window to the opposite side, making it easier for traffic to get through the area. Long John Silver's representatives still are not releasing an opening date, but acknowledged things are wrapping up as crews continue to work inside. "We’re excited to be nearing the finish line on our East Rochester restaurant and look forward to welcoming the community back later this year," Mike Niemiec, director of construction and development, told The Times Oct. 6 in an email. "We’ve been proud to serve this area for years,

Gas companies profit, Ohioans bemoan lack of jobs

Residents in eight Ohio counties believe big business is giving them the shaft. Belmont, Carroll, Columbiana, Guernsey, Harrison, Jefferson, Monroe and Noble County citizens said a promise of more jobs in fracking is not being met. Fracking drills water, sand and a chemical mix into cracked rock formations to release trapped oil or natural gas to produce shale gas. Sean O'Leary, senior researcher at the Ohio River Valley Institute, said there's been great interest in gas deposits in northeast Ohio since the 2000s. "Many political leaders, certainly business leaders, saw the development of what would eventually become the richest natural gas field in the world would be a driver of economic development in the region," O’Leary explained. Generating natural gas produces substantial revenue , O'Leary noted, and since 2006, microseismic technology has advanced shale gas production while the need for workers has declined. A 2023 economic impact study by the American Petroleum Institute suggested 50,000 industry jobs would be created in Ohio. The absence of reinvestment in communities hosting fracking operations is considered troubling by industry experts, especially amid a weakening job market. Big business and policymakers are “turning their heads the other way,” O’Leary contended. "There are surprisingly few
