Multiple reports say a regional paper mill is cutting more than 80 jobs after the company says it faces operational problems linked to an earlier arrangement for wood supply. The employer attributes the layoffs to the state government’s alleged failure to provide timber under a supply agreement that has since been abandoned. According to the accounts, the company argues that the lack of wood delivery under that arrangement affects its ability to run production and therefore leads to redundancies. The reports describe the job losses as significant for the region and characterize the situation as “devastating.” The coverage also reflects a dispute over responsibility, with the company focusing blame on government performance under the agreement. While the outlets largely repeat the employer’s explanation, they present the core points consistently: the number of jobs affected is more than 80, the paper mill is the party making the workforce changes, and the stated cause is connected to wood supply obligations under an abandoned agreement involving the state government. No alternative explanation from the government is included in the provided excerpts.
