Mill Shutdown Extended for Workers | Portland News
Description
A deadly chemical tank failure at Nippon Dynawave Packaging in Longview killed 11 workers and injured 8 in May, forcing the mill to shut down. In a major win for workers, the union secured an extension of pay through October 11th, offering crucial financial stability as investigations continue. State agencies and the U.S. Chemical Safety Board are probing the incident—and two other similar facilities—to prevent future disasters. Restarting the mill safely will take time, with the union stressing that rebuilding must be done with precision, accountability, and care.
