He noted, however, that the tour was not designed to provide any technical knowledge. Instead, it was designed to investigate the visual, audio and aromatic percep- tions of the two mills and to con- sider their impact on their host communities and surrounding environment. In Duluth, he explained, they toured the downtown Lake Superior Pulp and Paper Mill and various members of the group then visited the Lake Superior Sanitary District, met with the Chamber of Commerce and entered into casual conversation with neighbouring residents. In Grand Rapids their schedule was similar, with a tour of the Blandin Paper Company and meetings with the Chamber of Commerce, Independent Union of Land and Paper Mill Workers, and the mayor. The best indicator of the safety of the process, said Eastman, was the location of the two mills. Both were located in a mix of residen- tial homes and retail outlets, and gas furnace from Northwest Consolidated Supply. if the Blandin mill is sited on the Congratulations, Max. - - shore of the Mississippi River with . - Seat Mente | enanew || LENNOX AND NATURAL GAS — |. site bank.
