The Katahdin Paper Mill, located in Millinocket, Maine, is scheduled to close its doors forever, causing 208 mill workers to lose their jobs, due to the high cost of oil.
A mill spokesperson said that a small number of workers will continue with cleanup and mothballing operations until the layoffs take effect.
The company plans to convert the mill from oil-burning to using a biomass boiler.
