he said. “All of the fiber is
coming from Boise Cas-
cade. We are trying to work
with the Forest Service and
get the forest cleaned up,
but we have enough fiber
to run the plant,” he told the
court. In order to maintain

to buy the plant from the
Port for $1 million. The
co-gen plant was built in
1985 and the Kinzua Mill
closed in 1998. The plant is
a 10-megawatt wood-fired
power plant that was used
as an energy source for
the mill. It was mothballed
When the Port acquired
the mill site they contracted
with PES to refurbish the
co-gen equipment, replace
equipment that had been
sold, and restart the plant as

A truck dump, hog, screen,
radial stacker, fuel bin, and
associated conveyors were
supplied and installed at
that time. The boiler was
reconditioned and many
of the tubes were replaced.
The turbine was completely
rebuilt. The control system
and electrical were upgrad-
