Commissioner Steven Barry issues statement on IP explosion

   January 26, 2017

Escambia County Commissioner Steven Barry represents District 5, where the International Paper mill is located.

“As a result of the events at the International Paper mill Sunday evening, I am greatly concerned about the well being and the livelihoods of my friends, neighbors and constituents who have been negatively impacted by the explosion.

While I understand the assessing of a major situation and the formulating of a healthy recovery path forward becomes increasingly difficult as an organization becomes larger, I expect that Escambia County will receive such information very soon.”
