At mills like Woodland Pulp, on the Canadian border in Washington County, they get cooked and broken down to a brown mush. Higgins said Malcolm and Hornberger walked right into a big plume of hydrogen sulfide gas and had no idea it was there. Within the next few days, Woodland Pulp employees got the personal monitors, known as “crickets.” Higgins said other off-shore owners “don’t seem to have the same dynamic” as exists at Woodland Pulp in Baileyville. At the safety conference where Howland spoke, he was shocked at how few paper mills nationwide provide personal gas monitors.
