Good Mill Hunting

The California Trade and Commerce Agency will help evaluate and redevelop six closed state lumber mills. With a $200,000 grant, the two-year Mill Reuse Pilot Program will locate abandoned or closed mills and assess their level of environmental contamination, if any.

"Many of these sites have long-range potential for marketability and job creation," said CTCA secretary Lee Grissom. He expects the program, modeled after the Oregon Mill Site Conversion project, to be used as a model by other communities.
