The Times Herald in Port Huron, Mich., is reporting that Blue Water Automotive Systems Inc. will likely shut down in less than 90 days, after creditors objected to a purchase of the company by Flex-N-Gate Corp.

Blue Water is based in Marysville, Mich., and has plants in St. Clair, Port Huron, Caro and Howell, Mich., plus Burlington, N.C.; Leominster, Mass., and Mexico City.

The company had filed for Chapter 11 protection from creditors in February, citing major problems in the auto industry and rising resin prices.
