    the one with the red circle, on the right side of that circle is where the sulfuric acid and peroxide silos for the pulp mill are. I go here several times a week/month.

    There’s only one, so yes, you have been there. I hope it doesn’t shut down permanently after this, it would be devastating to the community. But, I’d be surprised if it doesn’t.
     
    D.Tibbitt, Bud A. and Johny41 Thank this.
