Would slowing down the cleanup process help create a more effective solution?
No. Indeed, remedial planning and cleanup projects at the mill site have been underway for several years. The longer cleanup is delayed, the longer it will take to redevelop the site, and redevelopment is critical to returning the site to productive use, generating economic value in the community through jobs, housing, tourism and other benefits. We also want to continue to move forward with cleanup activities to effectively and expeditiously address potential environmental risks posed by onsite conditions.
