===Paper mill=== Diamond International Papers was originally the hub of Groveton. Diamond International was replaced by James River Paper Company, which was followed by [[Wausau Paper]]. In 2008 Wausau ceased production in its Groveton mill, which in turn precluded the trains from stopping in Groveton. There were plans to turn the mill into a [[biomass]] plant, but as of January 2012, plans for buying the mill had fallen through.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.nhpr.org/post/purchase-falls-through-groveton-paper-plant-eyed-demolition| title=As Purchase Falls Through, Groveton Paper Plant Eyed for Demolition| date=January 17, 2012| author=Chris Jensen| publisher=New Hampshire Public Radio| access-date=April 3, 2012}}</ref> After an interview with former mill employees, the town of Northumberland decided to demolish the mill for [[scrap]] metals. With the price of metals at an all-time high, the town would make more money with the metals than waiting for the mill to sell. Plans for the future site included an [[LNG]] plant, which would have brought 80 or so jobs to the [[Great North Woods|North Country]]. However, the planned development did not materialize.
