Harbor Paper Delays Restart

Harbor Paper will not restart full production on Monday as planned.
Owner Cesar Scolari told employees they will be postponing their start up intended for next week.
The company says that in their first 6 months of operation, as with any new enterprise, obstacles presented themselves. They told employees that as they work through the obstacles, Harbor Paper’s Board has made the decision to do a wholesale management change at the mill.
During the transition, the mill would be cutting back its operations, a move they say is temporary.
They say that they plan to restart full operations and hope that these changes will improve viability of the mill as a long term enterprise.
In a message Wednesday, the company said that they were working very hard preparing for the restart of the mill, but there are many items within the start up preparation that are currently ongoing.
A new scheduled start date was not announced.
