Massena New York sits on the St Lawrence River at the US-Canada border and is home to Alcoa aluminum smelting operations — one of the largest industrial employers in northern New York. The Reynolds Metals Company and Alcoa operations have left significant PCB contamination in the St Lawrence River and the Grasse River, creating a Superfund cleanup that has affected the Akwesasne Mohawk Nation downstream. The St Lawrence Seaway infrastructure at Massena includes the Moses-Saunders Power Dam and the Eisenhower Lock.
