Sappi Fine Paper North America CEO says EPA proposed biomass rules will 'stymie' Maine mill [From the web]

BOSTON, Aug. 3, 2011 (Local News) - As a manufacturer of coated fine papers used for magazines, annual reports and more, Sappi Fine Paper North America believes that operating as an economically and environmentally sustainable company is not an "either-or" proposition. And our policies and practices reflect just that.

Our Somerset Mill in Skowhegan is a world-class paper manufacturing facility that employs 830 people. In order to remain globally competitive, operating sustainably is an imperative at Sappi. We must minimize our impact on the environment while maximizing the positive contributions we bring to the economy - two benefits that can go hand in hand.

As an industry leader in sustainability, Sappi is fully committed to protecting the environment. Over the years, we have implemented a number of initiatives to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, increase our energy efficiency and stabilize our costs.
