Fiberight now expects Maine plant to be ready in March, or May

In Maine, already more than a year behind schedule and set to open in December, Fiberight now says it will complete its waste processing facility in March and could begin receiving waste from 100 communities around the state by April. If things go wrong and some equipment needs to be changed, the company’s CEO says the opening could be stretched until May but could already begin receiving some waste streams before then. A number of reasons from weather to legal challenges to changing markets were given for the continued delays.
