Ball Corp. to Close Santa Ana Factory: Citing tough air-pollution regulations, the Indiana-based manufacturer said it will close a major glass-making factory Oct. 1, idling 300 workers. The company said it is too costly to renovate its furnaces to meet Southern California’s restrictive air quality regulations. The plant, which opened in the 1930s to make window glass, also is no longer cost-competitive with the company’s other factories, Ball said.
