Here is the Schematic overview for the planned tissue plant. I had heard a rumor that the Flakt Driers were sold and had heard others say the mill would start making pulp as early as October, so I decided to go to the mill and see if I could get an answer from Bob Simpson. He was in his office and updated on these topics. No, the mill will not be operational for awhile. They are still trying to garner financing. The Federal Loan Guarantee process is taking too long, so Freshwater Tissue is exploring a "Green" Initial Public Offering (IPO). This is when a company sells common stock or shares to the public for the first time. They are going to try to market their company as an environmentally conscience product, using environmentally monitored processes, that will make toilet tissue free of all dioxins by using the Totally Chlorine Free (TCF) pulping process. They plan on only using wood chips that have been timber harvested responsibly and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified. The entire front line of the Machine Room is for sale, as is the equipment in the Chips Dump. The Chip Silos will be renovated to have better chip blending capabilities. If they have to build a secondary treatment plant, it will be totally enclosed, as opposed to open aired treatment.
Bob said any former pulp mill employee that wants to tour the mill are welcomed to come by and set that up. (He was concerned about workers coming in without permission. This has happened recently.)

Why would anyone want to go to the mill?
So the bottom line is the "for sale" signs are up and they're liquidating the assets. Maybe they will recoup the purchase price through the sales. At the least, they will have minimized their investment to a rock bottom low number and can wait for a long time for a "bigger sucker" coming along.
Thats the way out here, find a desperate seller who needs cash and buy cheap. Immediately put it up for sale at a real high price and wait, even for years, for it to pay off.
Maybe they will rent out part for storage or host occasional music events and make a little cash flow.
They should ask those local folks who bought Humboldt Creamery stock to buy in to their new scheme.
There is only one FSC certified chip producer in Ca. that is MRC in Ukiah to claim FSC pulp or tissue you can only use FSC product to produce that mill puts out about 6-10 loads of chips per day not nearly enough to run the mill great idea but a little more research should be done. Evergreen Pulp was FSC and SFI certified but could not count FSC because of lack of FSC supply.
If any former employee wants to check out the mill or see if their locker is still there, call Mike Masterson at 834-6440. If you show up to the mill unannounced, go to the gate guard first to check in and call for Mike.

It's amazing that so many people feel so entitled to a job...to money....to a piece of something that they haven't risk a penny for -- looking at this from afar I think some of the ex-workers need to belly up to the bar and get some skin in the game -- how about working to get the mill up and running - support the effort instead of being a heckler in the peanut gallery -- get a life --
So who out there has a better idea? Throw it out here -- a few guys are risking it all and you can sit and complain? Get in the mix -- figure out how to bring some federal $ in and get the community prospering from the potential of this mill -- you have talent working for you -- create some synergy rather than negative resistance --
You could definitely see your expertise in the
work you write. The sector hopes for even more passionate writers such
as you who are not afraid to say how they believe. All the time follow your
heart.
