A portion of the land on which the North Vancouver, BC facility is situated is leased from the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority (the “Port”) pursuant to a lease which terminates on June 30, 2032. The lease provides that Chemtrade will be restricted from using the leased premises for purposes of receipt, manufacture, storage and distribution of liquid chlorine after June 30, 2030. Chemtrade is currently assessing alternative options to address the liquid chlorine restriction post-June 30, 2030, but Chemtrade’s inability to implement a viable alternative solution could have a material adverse effect on Chemtrade’s business, financial condition and/or results of operation. In addition, the lease provides the Port with the right to exercise an option to purchase at the end of the term, and the Port has communicated its intention to exercise the option to purchase at that time. Chemtrade intends to enter into discussions with the Port as to alternative options which are beneficial to both parties. However, the inability of Chemtrade to come to a solution with the Port for the continued use of the North Vancouver, BC site beyond June 30, 2032 could have a material adverse effect on Chemtrade’s business, financial condition and/or results of operation.

Can anybody shed any light on this potential "end of this company"?
Cheers!
that's a really valuable piece of property but looking at the balance sheet there's only 88 million in land and improvements for the entire company so it might have a creative ownership structure. and since it's been used for chemicals etc there could possibly be astronomical remediation costs.
