facility. It is expected that the mill will be able to produce and market about 600,000 tons of recycled linerboard and corrugated medium annually, making it the second-largest recycled containerboard machine in North America. Dom- tar sells its output to independents. The attendees received a tour that began with the historical aspects of the mill and progressed through the renovations and upgrades that have made the mill a show- case of the most modern paper-making technology. The mill utilizes 50,000 tons of recycling residuals and other by-products that otherwise would enter landfills. "AICC appreciates Domtar opening the facility for our members. It is impressive to see one of the widest, fastest, paper machines in the world creating 100 percent recy- cled product. It is the cleanest paper mill that I have ever visited,” said AICC President Mike D'Angelo. The golf tournament was held on the Cattails Golf Course at the MeadowView Marriott Resort. The winning team included Gregg Diethorn, Longreach International; Greg Jones, SUN Automation; James Moncure, J.M. Fry; and Chris Neighbors, Cumberland Container. AICC is appreciative of its sponsors: Domtar, along with Haire Group, AG Stacker, Bobst, SUN Automation, Inde- pendent Corrugator, American Corrugated Machine, Inde- pendent Paperboard Marketing, Baysek Machines, EAM Mosca, and TranSouth Logistics.
