facility closure
Building permanently closes
Facility closure is the permanent shutting down of a building, plant, or operation.
The term appears in business, government, and military contexts: The facility closure will affect three hundred workers.
It often triggers specific legal requirements—notification periods, environmental cleanup, or severance obligations.
A facility closure announcement typically precedes the actual shutdown by months.
