Great information. It’s really useful. Thanks
Valuable thoughts and advices. I read your topic with great interest.
I live in Humboldt county, California and accidently googled this piece about ANOTHER humboldt. It looks like you all are doing some good work here.
We started a blog to try to stop our local mill from reopening because of its terrible environmental record, black dust raining at night on us, that sort of thing. In the meantime Samoa Pulp didn’t get the stimulus package money. However, we have discovered in the process of doing research that a massive clean up is needed. If anyone out there knows how to go about ensuring there is a clean up, please contact us through our blog. The problem is that the company that did the damage has left without a trace, but it was a subsidiary of a company that is in Hong Kong. Help!
