Isn't the Rumford mill the largest currently operating in the State of Maine?? (Probably in New England, for that matter) It seems strange that the same week we hear of the Millinocket mills reopening, we hear dire news about the Rumford operation.

The Sappi Mill in Hickley is huge as is the Verso Mill in Jay.
Rumford is one of the "big four", (Jay, Bucksport, Hinckley, and Rumford - some might substitute Westbrook).
Maybe there are some statistics.
