Domtar continues working to mitigate odor from mill

Domtar has announced progress is being made in the two-phase plan to help mitigate the odor coming from the Kingsport Domtar mill. About a month ago an air permit from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation was approved, which allows for the beginning of phase two. Demo for the project is now underway and will take over a year for construction to be completed. Domtar is currently using temporary solutions to help with odor mitigation. There have still been complaints about the odor but Domtar is assuring residents that it is working to mitigate the odor. Domtar officials say they are working to keep the community updated on the progress through a website where updates about the project are being posted.
