The 160,000 tons-worth of downtime will be taken companywide — not just at the Whiting mill, which only produces an average of 55,000 tons of paper each quarter on its two paper machines, according to NewPage's Web site

Also, the shutdown of the No. 63 machine remains indefinite. NewPage President and Chief Executive Officer Rick Willett said the papermaker hopes to restart the machine once market conditions improve.
