CANNONSBURG Local union workers voted on Friday to end a two-month-old strike and return to work at the Catlettsburg Refinery.

The vote was 226-153 in favor of the proposal from Marathon Petroleum, according to union negotiator Dave Martin.

The union will start the process of returning to work Monday and take over the operations a week from today, he said.

The United Steelworkers went on strike on Feb. 1, with the local Marathon Petroleum refinery among the first union called to stop work.
