Sierra Plans Everett Sawmill

Siena Pacific Industries, Redding, Ca., has proposed building a new sawmill in Everett, Wa.

The company wants to build a computerized, state-of-the-art sawmill complex and electrical co-generation plant that would bring over 200 new jobs to the area.

The site. in the Riverside Industrial Park, used to house a Weyerhaeuser mill. "The mill Siena Pacific is going to be putting in there is going to be a lot different than what was there." said Eric Russell, director of properties for the Port.

Mid-Wi llamette Appeals Fi ne

Mid-Willamette Pre-cut Inc.. Scio. Or., has appealed a fine of over $120,000 for operating a solid waste landfill without a permit.

Oregon's Department of Environmental Quality director Stephanie Hallock stated, "the unpermitted disposal of waste at Mid-Willamette represents a substantial threat to the environment."

The DEQ submitted a statement listing various violations, including operating a landfill on the property without a proper permit, storing more than 100 waste tires on the grounds without a permit, endangering nearby water sources with its waste, and failing to properly clean up oil spills.

Construction on the estimated $60 million to $100 million facility could begin as early as this spring and be completed in l5 months.

According to Sierra Pacific's Ed Bond, the new mill would resemble a modem day factory, with paved work areas, Iandscaping, and a high-ceiling warehouse. The mill would use lasers and computers to get the most lumber from a log, while the wood waste produced would be burned to create steam to dry the lumber and generate electricity.

Production is estimated to be about 300 million board feet per year.

According to the DEQ, MidWillamette has not yet completed a waste analysis and a requested inventory of the site.

Mid-Willamette's attorney, Kevin Lafky, said that if the fine holds up, it could jeopardize the company's future. Mid-Willamette has already cut its shifts from three to one.

Weyco Yards Winding Down

By the end of March, Weyerhaeuser Co. will close its two Southern California retail yards, Fisher Lumber, Santa Monica, and Malibu Lumber, Malibu.

Fisher's lease runs out March 31, but manager Erik Jorgensborg said, "By all intents and purposes, we should be out by the end of February." The city owns the property and likely will develop it for non-commercial use such as a park.

The Malibu Lumber site, on the other hand, came close to again hosting a lumberyard. Anawalt Lumber Co., West Los Angeles, Ca., wanted to move in after Malibu Lumber left, but reportedly broke off talks due to the high rent demanded by the property owner and being required to add a costly new septic tank.

"We had hoped to sell [the business]," said Weyco's Kate Tate. "That has changed. We have ceased discussion on the sale of the business."

Some contractors are saddened, others irate that the closures leave the area without a lumberyard. '(I'm going to have to go into town to get a screw," said one local resident. "This is ridiculous."
