Domtar Enters Linerboard Market

GFL Reaches Deal To Acquire WCA An agreement has been reached to sell Houston-basedWCAWaste Corp. to Ontar- io, Canada-based GFL Environmental Inc. MIP II is a closed-end fund that is nearing the end of its fund term. GFL will acquire WCA and its subsidiaries for an aggregate purchase price of $1.21 billion. The pur- chase price for the acquisition will be fi- nanced in part with the net proceeds of a private placement of $600 million of equi- ty and through a combination of cash on hand and capacity under the company’s revolving credit facility. Founded in 2000, WCA provides solid waste collection, transfer, disposal and recycling services across 11 states. WCA currently operates a network of solid waste assets, including 37 collection and hauling operations, 27 transfer stations, three material recovery facilities and 22 landfills supported by more than 1,000 collection vehicles. WCA has an established regional plat- form with a growing footprint across the Midwest and Southeast, including three key markets in Texas, Missouri and Flor- ida. The company generates annualized revenue of approximately $400 million. The sale agreement is subject to cus- tomary closing conditions including reg- ulatory approval and is expected to reach completion in the fourth quarter of 2020.

by Greg Kishbaugh D omtar, Fort Mill, South Carolina, plans to enter the linerboard market with the conversion of an uncoated freesheet printing and writing paper machine line in Kingsport, Tennessee. The converted line will

make 600,000 tons per year of re- cycled-content linerboard and medium.

The company recently re- leased its second quarter financial report. Domtar reported net earnings

of $19 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to net earnings of $5 million for the first quarter of 2020 and net earnings of $18 million for the second quarter of 2019. Sales for the second quarter of 2020 were $1.0 billion. “We have been proactive in reducing risk and safeguarding our ability to weather

the current crisis,”said John D.Williams, president and chief executive officer.“Despite the significant challenges we faced in Pulp and Paper markets, we have been able to manage costs while initiating cash and cost conservation initiatives across the network.” When compared to the first quarter of 2020, manufactured paper shipments were down 32 percent, and pulp shipments increased 10 percent.The shipment-to-production ratio for paper was 105 percent in the second and the first quarters of 2020. Paper inventories de- creased by 22,000 tons, and pulp inventories decreased by 2,000 met- ric tons when compared to the first quarter of 2020. The Kingsport,Tennessee, move is part a cost-savings program the

NRC Receives Environmental Trust Grant The Lincoln-based Nebraska Recycling Council (NRC) has received two grants from the Nebraska Environmental Trust in the amounts of $290,016 for the Recycling Equip- ment Grants and Consultation project and $145,900 for the Feedlot Composting Planning project. The projects are two of the 118 projects receiving $20 million in grant awards from the Nebraska Environmental Trust in 2020. Of these, 73 were new applications and 45 are carry-over projects.

Grant Funding NRC’s objectives for this grant cycle are to:

National Fiber Supply Company

• provide grant funding to communities and private en- tities across the state of Nebraska for purchasing recycling equipment that will improve recycling and composting programs and increase waste diversion from landfills; • gather information from and provide consultation to communities and service providers that will improve re- cycling capacity in their region through public/private partnerships; • facilitate partnerships that will increase volumes col- lected and improve economic outcomes of rural recycling programs by pooling resources; and • expand NRC’s geographical representation of Advisory Council to help provide perspectives on resource recovery strategies for Nebraska.

company is implementing, targeting $200 million in annu- al run-rate cost savings to be realized by the end of 2021. The cost-saving initiatives include capacity reduction and asset closures, mill-level cost savings and rightsizing sup- port functions.The leaner organizational structure is also expected to improve communication flow and cross-func- tional collaboration, leveraging more efficient business processes. In line with the program, Domtar will permanently close the uncoated freesheet manufacturing at the Kingsport, Tennessee, and Port Huron, Michigan, mills; the remaining paper machine at the Ashdown,Arkansas, mill; and the con-

When it comes to premium baling technology, after the bale build phase nothing matters more than a properly tied bale. Our approach to automated bale tying is based on over 60 years of continuous improvement. The Balemaster auto-tie technology is a combination of proven electro/mechanical concepts, operator-tested automation and built-to-last construction and design engineering principles.

verting center in Ridgefields,Tennessee.These actions will reduce the company’s annual uncoated freesheet paper ca- pacity by approximately 721,000 short tons and will result in a workforce reduction of approximately 780 employees. The Kingsport and Ashdown paper machines, which have been idled since April 2020, will not recommence opera- tions. Port Huron and Ridgefields mills are expected to shut down by the end of the first quarter of 2021. Producing Recycled Linerboard Once in full operation,the Kingsport mill will produce and market approximately 600,000 tons annually of high-qual- ity recycled linerboard and medium.The conversion is ex- pected to be completed by the first quarter of 2023. Domtar estimates the conversion cost to be between $300 and $350 million. Once fully operational, the mill is expected to be a very low-cost, first quartile recycled liner- board mill in NorthAmerica.The converted mill is expected to directly employ approximately 160 employees. The company will complete the conversion of the Ash- down mill to 100 percent softwood and fluff pulp, which will require $15 to $20 million of capital investments and will take 12 to 14 months to implement.The mill will pro- duce additional market hardwood pulp until it converts the fiberline to softwood pulp. The conversion of the fiberline to 100 percent softwood is also necessary for an eventual expansion into container- board. Following the fiberline conversion,Ashdown will be a market pulp mill with annual capacity of 775,000 tons of fluff and softwood pulp. Domtar has chosen Voith to provide a complete recycled stock preparation system for the recently announced con- version of the Kingsport Mill in Kingsport,Tennessee.The system includes Voith’s BlueLine products including water, sludge and reject handling systems, which will reportedly maximize both efficiency and quality.

Domestic Purchasing Of Recycled Plastic Film Dips U.S. processing of recovered plastic film, bags and wraps grew 10 percent between 2017 and 2018, and collection of clear polyethylene film for recycling jumped 20 percent for the year, according to a report released today by the Amer- ican Chemistry Council and produced by More Recycling. The amount of film reported as recycled by U.S. and Ca- nadian processors increased for the sixth consecutive year and reached its highest mark yet, with 69 percent of the total amount collected and processed in the United States or Canada and the remainder being exported.The amount of recovered film exported dropped 19 percent. Overall, U.S. recycling of predominantly polyethylene film held steady, dipping just 0.5 percent, or 4.7 million pounds, for the year. A minimum of 1 billion pounds of plastic film and bags were recovered in 2018, according to the report, which is based on surveys of North America-based plastics reclaimers, processors, key brokers and exporters. ACC also released the 2018 National Post-Consumer Non-Bottle Rigid Plastic Recycling Report, which showed that domestic reclamation of non-bottle rigid plastics grew 4 percent, with the most significant increase coming from bale commodities that were collected curbside or other commingled collection streams and then further segregated by resin. Since 2010, total non-bottle rigid plastic recycling has increased over 50 percent with domestic purchases more than doubling during the same period.

ISRI Adopts Position On Recycled Plastic Content

The Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI),Washing- ton, has updated its position on minimum recycled plastic content. The association says its new position encourages efforts that will help spur demand for recycled plastics. ISRI says its position also aims to increase the commitment by stakeholders throughout the supply chain to ensure plastics are responsibly manufactured, collected and recycled into new products. Plastic Recycling The association’s position on minimum recycled plastic content supports: • legislation that expands the use of recycled plastic in ap- plications that are appropriate, noting these levels will vary by application and type of plastic; •efforts by manufacturers and brand owners to increase the use of recycled plastic resin beyond legislated levels and applications when possible; • manufacturers incorporating the principles of Design for Recycling to ensure their products are easily recycled; • stakeholder efforts that seek to increase plastic recycling through public education, outreach and advocacy to meet growing demand for recycled plastic; and • efforts that look at the life cycle assessment of a plastic product to help manufacturers make informed choices on the inclusion of recycled plastic resin.

Republic To Purchase 2,500 Electric Collection Trucks Republic Services Inc., Phoenix, Arizona, has formed a partnership with Phoenix,Arizona-based Nikola Corp. to de- velop and purchase 2,500 electric waste and recycling col- lection trucks.The zero-emissions vehicles, which will have a range of 150 miles and recharge overnight, are expected to be integrated into Republic Services’ fleet beginning in 2023.The deal is expandable to 5,000 vehicles over the life of the agreement. Last year, Republic Services set a long-term sustainabili- ty goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 35 percent and was reportedly the first U.S. recycling and solid waste services provider to have its emissions reduction target ap- proved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Waste Management Opens Salt Lake City MRF Waste Management of Utah, a subsidiary of Houston,Tex- as-basedWaste Management, has opened its $17 million ma- terial recovery facility in Salt Lake City. In March of last year, the company announced its plans to build the new, larger MRF to improve its Salt Lake City recycling operations. The new MRF supports recycling programs throughout the Salt Lake Valley, processing recyclables for Salt Lake City’s roughly 41,000 residential customers as well as nu- merous communities and businesses throughout the valley. The new WM Salt Lake MRF occupies 50,000 square feet inside an existing structure. The facility features advanced automation as well as rotating fiber screens, ballistic sepa- rators, optical sorters and magnets. More than 2.5 miles of conveyor belts carry materials through this single-stream processing facility, which can sort 35 tons per hour, 280 tons daily and more than 71,000 tons annually, according to the company. Kroger Partners With TerraCycle For Recycling The Kroger Co., Cincinnati, Ohio has launched its Simple Truth Recycling Program, offering customers what it says is a free and simple way to recycle the flexible packaging of more than 300 products from its private-label Simple Truth brand. The company says Simple Truth is America’s largest natural and organic brand,with annual sales exceeding $2.5 billion in 2019. Developed in partnership withTrenton, New Jersey-based TerraCycle, Kroger’s new platform enables customers to re- cycle a wide range of flexible packaging not currently ac- cepted in curbside recycling programs, including produce bags, bread bags and plastic overwrap from household items like tissues and bottled water. The SimpleTruth Recycling Program marks another signif- icant milestone for Kroger’s Zero Hunger | Zero Waste so- cial impact plan and reportedly establishes the company as the first Fortune 25 retailer to offer a free recycling program for its own private-label brand.

$43M Organic Recycling Center Proposed Minnesota The Ramsey/Washington Recycling & Energy Center in Newport,Minnesota, is about to take a $43 million dive into organics recycling. The addition to the center would enable it to pull food scraps out of the waste stream for the first time. Accord- ing to a proposal, the project would increase recycling, de- crease the amount of garbage being burned and reduce ma- terial sent to landfills.The proposal would bring the public cost of the center to $82 million — $24 million to buy it in 2016, $15 million in improvement projects, and $43 million the new organic-waste expansion. NWRA Recognized By ASAE The American Society for Association Executives (ASAE) named the National Waste & Recycling Association (NWRA) to its list of 100 Associations That Will Save the World . NWRA was recognized for its work to keep waste collec- tion workers safe on the job. ASAE highlighted NWRA’s Slow Down to Get Around initiative and its work during the COVID-19 pandemic to provide important safety resources to its member companies to ensure employees remain safe. Dow Helps Reduce Plastic Waste In Nigeria Dow Packaging and Specialty Plastics, Midland, Michigan, has announced that Project ReflexNG has launched. The pilot program aims to collect and recycle plastic scrap in Lagos, Nigeria.This is a part of Dow’s global goal to reduce, reuse or recycle 1 million metric tons of plastic by 2030. This project was made possible through partnerships with Omnik, RecyclePoints and the Lagos Business School Sustainability Centre. Through the project, water sachets will be recycled to show how they can be collected and re- used to make new packaging.The goal is to keep about 300 million sachets out of the environment or landfills while teaching more about sustainability. Right now, it’s estimated that about 19 percent of Nigeri- ans don’t have access to clean drinking water.Water sachets provide a less expensive source of drinking water, especially in urban areas. However, their use has led to more pollution and bad waste disposal.Often,water sachets aren’t included because waste pickers are paid by weight and the sachets are light. RecyclePoints, a waste management company, will collect the sachets through kiosks. Returning them will have incentives like exchanges for groceries, cash and other needed items.The plan is to expand to include more collec- tion partners later on. After the sachets are collected, Omnik will process it into postconsumer resin (PCR) and then work with Dow to de- termine how the PCR can best be used again. The pilot phase runs to February 2021 and after that Dow will scale up Project ReflexNG to recover even more flexi- ble packaging.

AF&PA Releases Sustainability Report

Buyer’s Guide

The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA),Wash- ington, has released its 2020 Sustainability Report, high- lighting the paper and wood products industry’s sustain- ability efforts. According to the association,AF&PA member companies have been required to adhere to, and report biennially on, a set of environmental, health and safety (EHS) principles since they were adopted in 1998 as well as on and sustain- able procurement principles. The current report reflects members’ progress in 2018. 2020 AF&PA Sustainability Report refers to a number of accomplishments (based on 2018 calendar year perfor- mance, except where noted): • AF&PA member companies achieved a 38.4 percent im- provement in the safety incidence rate from the 2006 base- line, surpassing the 25 percent goal, with 1.62 recordable cases per 200,000 hours worked in 2018 compared with 2.63 in 2006; • AF&PA members adhere to sustainable fiber procure- ment principles, which assure that wood is sourced from suppliers that are committed to sustainable management and harvesting practices, with members procuring 99 per- cent of their total wood fiber through a certified sourcing program—a 12 percent increase from the 2005 baseline; •AF&PA members’ purchased energy use per ton of prod- uct was 13.3 percent lower than the baseline year, surpass- ing the goal to improve energy efficiency by 10 percent, with ember pulp and paper mills self-generated 55 percent of the electricity needed to power their mills in 2018, most of which was renewable using carbon-neutral biomass man- ufacturing residuals; • Members surpassed their goal, reducing GHG emis- sions—measured in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO- 2eq) per ton of product—by 23.2 percent from the 2005 baseline; • AF&PA members’ pulp and paper mill water use per ton of product decreased by 6.9 percent, largely unchanged from recent years and when adjusted to provide greater weight to reductions occurring at mills in water-stressed ar- eas, pursuant to the World Resources Institute (WRI) aque- duct Water Risk Atlas, members reduced process water use by 13.1 percent; and • In 2019, the paper recycling rate was 66.2 percent, fall- ing shy of the 70 percent goal but still nearly a 15 percent increase from the 2005 baseline.
