Plant converts 4.8 million lbs. trees into 1.6 million lbs. of paper per day.

Uses 16 million gallons of water per day.

Produces 40 megawatts of electricity per day (almost enough to power every household in Rutland VT).

International Paper is currently one of the regions largest polluters reporting toxic releases of over 400,000 lbs. of hazardous pollution every year. VPIRG points out that this is more than twice the total reported toxic releases for all of Vermont.

International Paper Company has a poor record of disclosing information and compliance with environmental regulations."
