Maine Offers Tax Credits to Great Northern

The Finance Authority of Maine last week approved roughly $16 million in tax credits for two groups making investments related to Great Northern Paper Co.'s mill in East Millinocket.
FAME claims in a media release the two decisions are "expected to help create and retain 448 Maine jobs" combined, although a breakdown of how many new jobs would be created vs. existing jobs retained was not available Friday.
