Northern Pulp receives government directions for ‘orderly shutdown’

Northern Pulp has received an official order from Nova Scotia Environment Minister Gordon Wilson detailing the process for completing its shutdown following the legislated date of Jan. 31.

At that point, the order indicates that the effluent discharge pipe in Boat Harbour will be cleaned and disconnected.
