U.S. Representative Reid Ribble (R) of Wisconsin's 8th District held a Paper Industry Roundtable discussion with several industry representatives in Appleton, Wis., USA, on February 22. The largely open discussion covered several topics of interest to mills, including Boiler MACT, the pending highway bill, and general state of business.
Boiler MACT was of most concern to the attendees and Rep. Ribble stated that a moratorium bill currently pending in the Senate would likely pass this year if brought to a floor vote. Companies represented at the roundtable were Green Bay Packaging, Domtar, Neenah Paper, Fox River Fiber, Appleton Coated, Georgia-Pacific, and Thilmany. Industry associations Wisconsin Paper Council, Pulp and Paper Manufacturers Association (PPMA), and TAPPI were also in attendance.
