Stora Enso said that its 50/50 joint-venture pulp mill project with Arauco — Montes del Plata at Punta Pereira, in the department of Colonia, Uruguay — which was scheduled to begin the start-up process at the end of September, is experiencing a delay."The mill site is 92% complete and the commissioning of certain areas has already begun. However, the main technology contractors have informed Montes del Plata that they will not be able to complete the work according to the agreed timetable," Stora Enso said.
