There are more complaints coming from the Minnesota side of Rainy River over an odour that many residents there believe is coming from AbitibiBowater's mill in Fort Frances.
Koochiching County Commissioner Wade Pavleck says the county's fired off letters to the company asking for information on what's been done to stem the smell since an initial meeting three years ago.
"They were going to make quarterly reports to us as they made progress on doing some updates that were going to take of the problem," says Pavleck. "But those meetings never occurred and the odours have continued. It's got to the point that we've got so many complaints that we had to take some action ourselves and try to get the parties back together."
The company maintains its meeting guidelines for air emissions at its mill.
