WGME (Channel 13 in Portland) cited a study conducted by the Maine Forest Products Council and the University of Maine in a report about the state’s pulp and paper industry. According to the study, the industry had an $8.5 billion economic impact in 2016. “We have gone through some transitions and we’re in the middle of some of those transitions, but we’re very much alive and kicking and a growing kind of industry,” said Patrick Strauch, executive director of the council.
