CHILLICOTHE, Ohio (WCMH) — A paper mill that has been part of Chillicothe for centuries filed an updated mass layoff notice on Tuesday, less than two months after it announced it would remain open through 2025. The new notice says the mill will shut down by Aug. 10. “While the initial shutdown timing was paused in good faith, staffing levels and customer demand have declined in recent weeks such that a further delay is no longer possible,” the notice reads.
