Paper and pulp industry in Dryden, Ontario
The paper and pulp industry in Dryden, Ontario, which began in the early 1900s, resulted in a significant environmental issue through the dumping of mercury by a paper mill into local waters.
==History==
During the late 1890s, there were several sawmills operating in the Dryden, Ontario area. They primarily supplied the builders of the Canadian Pacific Railway(CPR) with railway timber, and powered the many steam boilers used for mining in that area.〔 In 1909, Charles and Grant Gordon began the construction of a paper mill on the west side of the Wabigoon River, where a paper mill is currently located.〔History of Dryden Paper Mill ("Original Construction of the first paper mill in 1909" ) Retrieved on 2009-10-25.〕 The mill's location has some advantages, because it has an abundant electricity supply from the river and a plentiful supply of wood.〔 It also happened to be 130 kilometers upstream from the Grassy Narrows traditional area.〔(''Diversity and First Nations issues in Canada'', John A. Roberts, Darion Boyington, Emond Montgomery Publication, 2008, ISBN 1-55239-194-9, ISBN 978-1-55239-194-5, accessed November 20, 2009 )〕
In 1911, the rights of the timber lease were transferred from the Gordon brothers to the Dryden Timber and Power Company because the building they were constructing burned down in 1910, and they did not have means to complete their project.〔 Dryden Timber and Power Company constructed a new mill and started to operate in 1913; it was the first Kraft pulp mill in Northwestern Ontario.〔〔History of Dryden Paper mill (Dryden Mill Ownerships Changes ) Retrieved on 2009-10-24〕 Power chain saws, safety pants and safety gloves were introduced with the ownership of Dryden Paper Company in the early 1960s, resulting in a tremendous increase in productivity for the loggers.〔〔History of Dryden Paper Mill (People's stories while working at the Dryden Paper Mill ) Retrieved on 2009-10-25.〕
Afterward, the ownership of the mill changed several times. Ownership was transferred from Weyerhaeuser to Domtar (its present owner) in March 2007 for approximately US$520 million.〔()〕 It has an annual pulp production capacity of 319,000 tonnes in 1 pulp line.〔〔Domtar corporation (Dryden Paper Mill ) Retrieved on 2009-10-25〕
