Nestle plant

In 2006 Nestlé began a negotiations process with the town of McCloud to build one of the nation's largest bottled water plants and use a portion of the water flowing from the springs of Mt. Shasta. The contract process was protested by local special interest groups[15] whose claims include that Nestle neglected to study the impact on the region's ground water and have overstated the potential economic benefits of the proposed plant. On May 13, 2008 AP Press reported that Nestle announced plans to reduce the size of the proposed McCloud Bottled Water plant to 350,000 sq ft (33,000 m2) from the originally-planned 1,000,000 sq ft (93,000 m2) proposal. Nestle also agreed to monitor the impact of the plant on the local watershed for two years.[16] Nestle opened a different bottling plant in Sacramento, in July 2009, and then in September 2009 Nestle announced they would no longer pursue any bottling operation in McCloud.[17] Nestle plans to sell the property they had acquired for the bottling site, which was the site of the defunct McCloud lumber mill (closed by last mill owners CalCedar).

On July 1, 2014, the former McCloud River Lumber Company site was purchased by an eclectic group of investors, McCloud Partners, LLC. This group has revived the property after being closed, vandalized, and abandoned for almost two decades. McCloud Partners has turned the property into a self funded enterprise zone that supports new business, employment opportunities, and new ideas. The property hosts several fire agencies and fire agency support services. It has hosted 3 CalFire Fire Camps with abundant water resources, an air support dipping pond, and hostfacilities. The importance of property stewardship shows the priority how the partnership values the community in where it's located.
