It sure is, those of us who know the area understand that the lost of 1,200 is a major blow. Big cities can handle the lost where the majority of workers will be absorbed by other companies.

There isn't that many major employers left, the state college or the prisons will remain, but how many can they take? Tourism can't handle the load alone, the unemployed have to either move away or accept a much lower paying job.

With it's location maybe a Canadian company will pick it up, bush hasn't destroyed their economy.
