Woodland Pulp, the largest employer in Washington County, Maine, is set to reopen this week after a monthlong pause in operations. …All 144 employees who were temporarily laid off in early November were expected to return by Wednesday, representing about one-third of the mill’s workforce. Poised on the banks of the St. Croix River across from Canada, Woodland Pulp is one of Maine’s last major mills. It produces pulp sold to papermakers worldwide. Spokesperson Scott Beal previously attributed the “extended downtime” during the layoff period to falling prices in the global pulp market, not to the additional 10% tariff the Trump administration imposed on Canadian timber products in mid-October. …Woodland Pulp is one of six mills in the Northeast United States and Quebec that have recently paused or reduced wood deliveries, according to Dana Doran, executive director of the Professional Logging Contractors of the Northeast.
