Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company is exposed to, among other risks, the impact of changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates in the normal course of business. The Company’s risk management program is designed to manage the exposure and volatility arising from these risks, and utilizes derivative financial instruments to offset a portion of these risks. The Company uses derivative financial instruments only to the extent necessary to hedge identified business risks, and does not enter into such transactions for trading purposes.
The Company generally does not require collateral or other security with counterparties to these financial instruments and is therefore subject to credit risk in the event of nonperformance; however, the Company monitors credit risk and currently does not anticipate nonperformance by other parties. Contracts with counterparties generally contain right of offset provisions. These provisions effectively reduce the Company’s exposure to credit risk in situations where the Company has gain and loss positions outstanding with a single counterparty. It is the Company’s policy to offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets the amounts recognized for derivative instruments with any cash collateral arising from derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any amounts on deposit with any of its counterparties, nor did any of its counterparties have any amounts on deposit with the Company.
Derivative Fair Values
Our derivatives consist of natural gas forward swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and U.S. treasury rate lock agreements, all of which are over-the-counter and not traded through an exchange. The Company uses widely accepted valuation tools to determine fair value, such as discounting cash flows to calculate a present value for the derivatives. The models use Level 2 inputs, such as forward curves and other commonly quoted observable transactions and prices, which are observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. The fair value of our derivatives and hedging instruments are all classified as Level 2 investments within the three-tier hierarchy.
The following table presents the fair value of derivatives and hedging instruments and their respective location on the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses a combination of derivative financial instruments, which qualify as cash flow hedges, and physical contracts to manage forecasted exposure to electricity and natural gas prices. As of June 30, 2025, the notional amounts of these natural gas forward swaps for both continuing and discontinued operations were 6 million MMBtu (or MMBtu equivalent) based on U.S. and European indices. The Company has designated these natural gas forward swaps as cash flow hedges, with the last hedge maturing no later than June 2026. A net unrecognized loss of $1 million related to these natural gas forward swaps was included in AOCI as of June 30, 2025, $1 million of which is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.
In 2020, the Company entered into a $175 million forward U.S. Treasury rate lock agreement to manage the U.S. Treasury portion of its interest rate risk associated with the anticipated issuance of certain 10-year fixed rate senior notes. The Company designated this forward U.S. Treasury rate lock agreement, which expired on December 15, 2022, as a cash flow hedge. The locked fixed rate of this agreement was 0.994%. In September 2022, a gain of $6 million was recognized as a result of a change in the forecasted issuance of certain senior notes. In December 2022, the Company received cash of $37 million upon the settlement of the rate lock agreement, of which $31 million will be amortized as a component of interest expense upon the future issuance of senior notes. In May 2024, the Company issued new senior notes and began amortizing the $31 million over the life of the Company's 5.700% senior notes due 2034, of which $1 million was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025. The unrecognized gain of $28 million was included in AOCI as of June 30, 2025.
