Port Huron’s paper mill is running again — and it’s bringing new jobs and momentum to the Blue Water Area. Legacy Port Huron Paper officially relaunched last week at the old Domtar site, with Governor Gretchen Whitmer joining local leaders to mark the comeback. A $24.5 million private investment and state support helped restart operations. The BMI Group plans to share the site’s steam and power systems among multiple businesses. About 40 workers are back on the job now, and that number could reach 200 by ’28 as production expands.

Authorities say a head-on crash in Attica Township sent two people to the hospital Tuesday afternoon. Dispatchers got calls around 3:40 p.m. about a silver Honda Civic driving erratically on Imlay City Road. Minutes later, deputies responded after that car slammed into a Ford Fusion near Mitchell Lake Road. Investigators say the Civic, driven by a 37-year-old Imlay City woman, was traveling east in the westbound lane and collided with a 29-year-old Capac man in the Fusion. Both were taken to McLaren Lapeer Hospital with stable injuries. Deputies suspect impairment and continue to investigate.
