Odour From Dryden Mill Causes Headaches

Domtar is apologizing for an odour at the Dryden Mill that prompted numerous complaints from nearby residents.

Bonnie Skene says some concentrated odour was released Tuesday morning around 9:00 when a piece of equipment didn’t work as expected.

She says it lasted about 30-seconds and occurred a couple of times during a five minute period.

Skene notes wind carried the smoke into town.

She stresses the problem was fixed as quickly as possible.

A number of residents at 10 Victoria contacted the CKDR Newsroom and the Mill complaining of illness due to the odour.
