Gorham Paper and Tissue, LLC is a paper mill that consists of all equipment and operations required to convert bleached market pulp, unbleached pulp and recycled fiber to paper products.
In April, 2011, FP Acquisitions, LLC, the previous owners of the Gorham mill, applied for and received Temporary Permit, TP-0080 for the modification of the burners in two of the steam-generating boilers at the facility. Power Boilers #1 and #2 (PB1 and PB2) have been modified by GPT to combust natural gas from the Portland Natural Gas Transmission System (PNGTS) in addition to #6 fuel oil and on-specification used oil. TP-0080 also allows for the burning of treated1 landfill gas (LFG) from Mount Carberry Landfill in combination with natural gas in Power Boilers #1 and #2. The pipeline for the landfill gas is currently under construction and is expected to be completed in mid-2012.
