Pros
The Albany Paper Mill was the first Western Kraft/Willamette Industries paper mill. It was the largest employer in county in tax revenue, employee salaries, etc.
Cons
IP closed the mill at the end of 2009. The small paper machines were not competitive in the global market. The back end of the mill was new (by industry standards, less than 10 years) and may find new life in future.
