Northern Metal & Iron LLC has been approved to upgrade one of its North Dakota facilities. The company, a unit of European Metal Recycling Ltd. (EMR), been granted a special-use permit from the Bismarck Planning & Zoning Commission on two parcels it owns on 26th Street South in Bismarck. The permit was necessary to replace a trailer that temporarily served as an office with an actual building, and to pave the processing yard. The work will get under way at the eight-acre yard in the spring and be finished in 2011, according to an EMR spokesman. The Bismarck facility, which has the ability to shear and bale, focuses on railroad wrecking and salvage. It also buys ferrous and nonferrous metal and has rail access. Northern Metal began operations in 2007, when four Minnesota scrap metal processors merged. It has operations in that state, as well as in North Dakota and Wisconsin.
