Mill Shutdown

A problem at the company's effluent treatment system has shutdown the AbitibiBowater Mill in Fort Frances.

A company spokesperson says its because the system exceeded its daily biochemical oxygen demand limit due to the cold weather.

The company won't say how long it will be down or how many of the 565 employees have been effected.

However, some workers tell B-93 they've told they could be back to work within two weeks.
