    Buffalo News - Steelmaker reaches out to labor, environmentalists By JOHN NOLAN
    MIDDLETOWN, Ohio - AK Steel Corp. is embarking on a more conciliatory approach toward environmentalists and regulators after shaking up its management ranks last month.

    At the urging of the company's board, interim chief executive James Wainscott has begun a new era since his Sept. 18 promotion. He met with an environmentalist to help foster communication and huddled with United Steelworkers union officials before they jointly announced an agreement to try to work out disputes lingering from a bitter, 39-month worker lockout that ended last year at AK Steel's Mansfield plant.
