For Immediate Release

BETHLEHEM, Pa., April 24, 2001 - In response to media inquiries concerning whether Bethlehem would seek concessions with the United Steelworkers of America should the union grant them to LTV Steel, the following response was provided:

"Employees of Bethlehem's steel producing and finishing operations are generally represented by the United Steelworkers of America.
