Pulp mill: An article in the Sept. 9 Business section about a wood pulp mill in Eureka said that current owner Bob Simpson bought the mill in 2009 after its former owners had abandoned it, leaving behind millions of dollars in debts.

Municipal Art Gallery: An article in the Sept. 4 Calendar about L.A.’s Museum of Contemporary Art being interested in running the city-owned Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery in Barnsdall Park quoted Olga Garay, executive director of the city’s Department of Cultural Affairs, as saying such a move would save the city between $400,000 and $500,000, including 3 1/2 fulltime positions that would be eliminated if MOCA took over the gallery. It is not known whether city employees at the gallery would lose their jobs if MOCA or another private nonprofit operator took over, as they might be reassigned elsewhere.

School lunch: An article in the Aug. 26 Food section quoted Liz Powell, director of food services for the Santa Maria-Bonita School District, as saying that buying 80% of its produce locally had added to food costs.
