Valdosta Mill Fire Insurance Recovery |
19. | VALDOSTA MILL FIRE INSURANCE RECOVERY
On April 4, 2011, the Company's Valdosta, Georgia mill had a fire that was confined to the turbine generator room. The fire resulted in production and sales volume losses of 11,000 tons and significant repair and demolition expenses to affected buildings and equipment. PCA is insured for the lost production, replacement value of destroyed assets, and related expenses, subject to a $3.0 million deductible. The Company filed an insurance claim for the total cost of the fire and received $6.5 million, net of the $3.0 million deductible, for losses incurred and capital expenditures during the second quarter of 2011. During the third and fourth quarters of 2011, the Company received an additional $1.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, in insurance proceeds for capital expenditures. The $9.4 million in insurance proceeds is included in net cash provided by operating activities ($5.5 million) and in net cash used for investing activities ($3.9 million) based on the nature of the reimbursement. PCA expects to receive additional insurance proceeds for capital expenditures as work is completed.
