During the third quarter of 2011, the Company conducted a review of its business strategies and product plans based on the business and industry outlook, and concluded that its manufacturing footprint and fixed cost base were excessive for its medium-term needs. Accordingly, a plan was developed to reduce the Company’s facility footprint by approximately 40% through the sale and/or closure of facilities comprising a total of approximately 600,000 square feet. To date, the Company has reduced its leased presence at six facilities and achieved a reduction of approximately 400,000 square feet. One remaining property, the Cicero Avenue Facility, has been vacated and is being prepared for sale. The Company believes its remaining locations will be sufficient to support its current business activities, while allowing for growth for the next several years.

The Company recorded a liability associated with environmental remediation costs that were originally identified while preparing the Cicero Avenue Facility for sale. See the “Environmental Compliance and Remediation Liabilities” section of Note 12, “Commitments and Contingencies” of these consolidated financial statements. The Company adjusted the liability by recording an additional $352 liability associated with the planned sale of the Cicero Avenue Facility. The Company further adjusted the liability by recording an additional $258 charge in the fourth quarter of 2013 and an additional $874 charge in the third quarter of 2015. The expenses associated with this liability have been recorded as restructuring charges; as of December 31, 2016, the accrual balance remaining was $1,241.    

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had completed the expenditures relating to its restructuring plan, with the exception of the new information on the environmental remediation of the Cicero Avenue Facility that resulted in additional expense of $874 recorded during the third quarter of 2015 and new information on the fair value on the Clintonville Facility that resulted in additional impairment expense of $186 recorded during the fourth quarter of 2015 based on negotiations that resulted in the execution of a sale contract subsequent to the year-end. The Company incurred total costs of approximately $14,200,  net of a $3,585 gain on the sale of an idle tower plant in Brandon, South Dakota. The Company’s restructuring charges generally include costs to close or exit facilities, costs to move equipment, the related costs of building infrastructure for moved equipment and employee related costs. Of the total restructuring costs incurred, a total of approximately $4,800 consists of non‑cash charges.
