Good morning all,
 I know this may seem like an odd question, but I can't find anything online readily. Are there any active paper mills in the Baltimore area? I know there is a Paper Mill flats birding locale, and it would make sense that it was named for a paper mill, but when I walk outside sometimes (this morning for instance) I get the distinct smell of a paper mill on the wind. I grew up in western MD, and so I'm familiar with that pungent odor (the Luke plant was upwind of where we lived). This seems to happen around here less often (maybe only on certain winds), but the smell is certainly memorable (and not in a good way).

Thanks in advance,
