A familiar presence has returned to Berlin.

It's the smell of the city's pulp mill.

The mill reopened recently after a 19-month hiatus.

And Berlin residents are overjoyed to see mill workers get their jobs back.

But reactions to the sulfurous odor are mixed.

And some people also feel a lingering anxiety about the city's future.

NHPR's Trish Anderton collected these remarks from people at Tea-birds Cafe and along Berlin's Main Street.
