EVANSVILLE, Ind. (AP) - The company that owns an Evansville printing plant says it will be shutting it down in June and eliminating nearly 60 jobs.

Chesapeake Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Packaging notified state officials on Wednesday about the closing decision for the plant where it makes a variety of printing and packaging products.

The New York-based company simply cites business reasons for the closing decision, saying it regrets that the action is necessary.

The company says the jobs of 59 employees are to be eliminated after operations at the plant are wrapped up by late June.
