Reynolds warns Arkansas mill plans hinge on ore tax
Reynolds spokesman warned the company could halt Arkansas operations if a state ore tax rises. A bill pending in the legislature would lift the tax from 10 to 50 cents per ton, threatening a rolling mill expansion. Rene Johnson, Reynolds VP and former Kentucky governor, said Arkansas ore is low-grade and that Reynolds relies on ore from South America, Jamaica, and alternating sources for 300 years of reserves. If enacted, profits would fall and major operations might move to the Gulf Coast closer to ore supply.
