California Dealer Closes

Johnson's Lumber, Kingsburg, Ca., closed and sold off its inventory last month.

The March 6 liquidation came after an unsuccessful l8-month search for a buyer. The Johnson family plans to destroy the building and sell the property.

The yard began in l9l0 as Mead Clark Lumber Co. Don Johnson's father joined the yard in 1917, working until his retirementin 1967.

Don Johnson joined Mead Clark in 1957. His brother had joined earlier in 1952. In 1974 the Johnson brothers consolidated their interests in other lumber yards and bought the Kingsburg store, remodeling it, and renaming it Johnson's Lumber.

In 1988 Johnson's brother retired, and Richard Wimp was brought in to help run the operations.

Johnson and his wife, Sylvia, said they plan to retire.

Boise Settles Air lssues

Boise Cascade Corp. has settled with the U.S. Department of Justice and the EPA over alleged air quality violations at four plywood plants.

The EPA alleged in 2000 that Boise did not accurately report its VOC emissions nor did it properly control air emissions at its plywood and particleboard facilities under guidelines of the Clean Air Act.

As a result of the settlement, Boise will install air pollution controls at its plywood plants in Elgin and Medford, Or., in addition to two plants in Louisiana.

The company will also evaluate control options at its particleboard facility in Island City, Or.

The controls are expected to collectively reduce air emissions of VOCs by an estimated total of 1,766 tons per year.

Pride In Wood Products

The Wood Promotion Network plans a series of media spots over the next year promoting the use of wood products and demonstrating support for building professionals.

The group will team with the California Forest Products Association and the California Forestry Association to run tv ads from late April through June.

The organization has also part- nered with Ford to explore the best means for the industry to access a granting program designed to demonstrate Ford's commitment to rural resource communities.

The U.S. auto maker ran a series of anti-wood ads last year. causing a sizable backlash against the company from the lumber and timber industry.

Ford has so far responded to the controversy by running a pro-wood ad in the January edition of Family Handyman-a magazine that features wood stories and projects. Future pro-wood ads sponsored by Ford are scheduled to appear this summer.

More details of the group's plans will be made available this month after the Steering Committee meets.
