This is what is needed to give the Laidlaw (Berlin Station) project credibility.
"John Halle, president of Cate Street Capital said the new owners are looking at a total investment of $60 million, including $25 million for a tissue machine. He hopes to close on the purchase by early April and reopen the mill immediately"
The purchase of this mill will be regarded as a minor accomplishment, reopening the mill immediately is where the gain in credibility takes center stage. If that happens "IMMEDIATELY" as stated, credibility soars, if not this whole process stands to fall into a huge rut and the 2.5 million promise to pay more than likely follows suit as just another PR that everyone is accustomed to by now. Keep in mind, MBartoszek, if he is who most of you claim he is on this board, has posted here that the Cascade mill will NEVER reopen yet his successor of this project is very adamant that it will. You would think that if these two were still on the same Laidlaw Berlin team, they might be singing the same song? Leads one to believe the letter that is circulating indeed signifies a changing of the guards.
