IN THE NEWS Washington Paper Mill Idled

Packaging Corporation of America has notified employees at its mill in Wallula, Washington, that the plant will be idled and will not resume operations until later this year. The company, based in Lake Forest, Ill., attributed the action to “economic conditions.” “We expect to resume operations at the mill later this year,” the company said in a statement. It appears the decision will affect about 300 workers. The pulp and paper mill makes about 1,800 tons of unbleached paper and corrugate medium each day. Corrugated products facilities in Richland and Wallula were not affected and will remain open. There was no apparent warning under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, which requires companies with 100 or more employees affected by layoffs to give advance notice. The notices are required for temporary shutdowns that last six months or longer. Karl Dye, president of the Tri-City Development Council, said while the news is unfortunate, workers are in demand across skill and education levels in the region. The local economy should be able to re-employ them, he said. With 450 workers in total in the region, Packaging Corporation of America is Walla Walla County’s ninth largest employer.

Forest Service Allocated $63 Million for Wildfire Barriers

The U.S. Department of Agriculture will invest $63 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act to expand wildfire barriers, known as fuel breaks, to protect communities and firefighters in five states in the West. Fuel breaks slow a fire’s spread, create a safe zone for firefighters to work and a safer place to conduct hazardous fuel reduction treatments like prescribed burns. This new round of investments will support projects in Wyoming, Colorado, Montana, Oregon, and South Dakota. They will improve firefighter response, protect critical infrastructure and natural resources, ensure clean drinking water, support local timber industries, enhance rural economies and create jobs. The projects were identified through a cross-boundary process that brings together Tribes, local wildland fire managers, business owners, elected officials and scientists to plan for future fires. It supports the National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy as well as complementary fuels treatment efforts. 4

Through this planning process, the U.S. Forest Service works with local communities to identify fire barriers such as roads, rivers and other landscape features that can prevent wildfires from spreading. Reinforcing barriers and constructing adjacent fuel breaks will help reduce the risk of highseverity wildfires in the project areas. All of these areas are in, or adjacent to, high-risk fire sheds that are outside of the initial 21 Wildfire Crisis Strategy landscapes.

Lumber Demand Remains Soft

As April waned, the usual spring buying of construction framing softwood lumber had not yet materialized. Suppliers had plenty of inventory on hand for customers who continued to only order wood for immediate needs. As such, supply remained quite ahead of demand. Even as the days got progressively longer and the weather improved, there did not seem to be a boom in home building, as has been historically normal. As such, the recent and ongoing production curtailments – especially in British Columbia, Canada, – helped keep sawmill order files to within two or three weeks. Demand for Western S-P-F in the U.S. was so-so, according to traders. Business was heavily region- and product-dependent, with bread-and-butter dimension and stud items garnering the lion’s share of demand. Experienced players wondered whether sawmills might consider cutting the odd shift to pull material out of what many referred to as an oversupplied market. Downstream buyers were content with replenishing through the distribution network and still showed no urgency to cover more than immediate needs. According to Canadian purveyors, the Western S-P-F market continued to struggle to reach typical spring price levels. Prices stabilized further, with nearly all dimension commodities remaining at or on either side of the previous week’s numbers.

Forest Service Chief Grilled

The US Forest Service says thinning forests to protect communities remains its top priority. However, members of Congress from the West are increasingly challenging the Forest Service to do more. Meanwhile, federal firefighters are challenging Congress to do more – especially with a congressionally created budget crisis butting up against the start of what could prove a difficult fire season across the west. Western lawmakers recently grilled Forest Service Chief Randy Moore about the long (continued on page 6) TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

IN THE NEWS (continued from page 4) delays in funding and actually approving forest restoration projects designed to reduce the risk of catastrophic fires that can consume whole towns and permanently alter forest ecosystems. The decade-long delay in implementing the 4-Forests Restoration Project emerged as a prime example in the congressional hearings. Moreover, a series of studies by the General Accounting Office maintains that the Forest Service has routinely exaggerated the number of acres treated by often counting the same ground two or three times Moore said the top priority of the Forest Service is now reducing hazardous fuel loads on 4 million acres of high-risk forest nationwide, partly with the help of $320 million in infrastructure money requested by the Biden Administration and approved by Congress. “We all recognize that we have an emergency situation out there and we need to be doing more work rather than less work,” said Moore. California, New Mexico, Colorado and Arizona have all set wildfire records in the past several years, thanks to a century of forest mismanagement compounded by two decades of drought. The wet winter across the West has eased some of the urgency when it comes to preparing for the wildfire season. However, the shift to a hot dry spring and the likely delay in the onset of the monsoon could result in a return to dangerous fire conditions later in the summer in California, Washington, Oregon and elsewhere.

The federal government spent about $2 billion on fighting and managing wildfires in 1994. By fiscal 2022, spending had increased to $7.5 billion. More than half of the money went to putting out fires – rather than preparing communities, rehabilitating burn areas and fuels management.

Willamette Forest Will Get $14.7 Million to Reduce Fuels

Willamette National Forest in Oregon will receive $14.7 million for wildfire fuels reduction efforts, the U.S. Forest Service announced. The funds, allocated under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Law, will be used to establish fuel breaks on planning units known as potential operational delineations (PODs). PODs are areas with defined boundaries, such as road and natural features, that can be used to establish control lines for containing wildfires, officials said. “We’re looking forward to building on existing partnerships and creating new ones to do this work in areas and in ways that benefit people,” said Dave Warnack, supervisor for the Willamette National Forest. “Together we will strategically identify and implement work to protect communities, homes, infrastructure, and industrial forests through the use of fuel breaks and PODs, tools that give us the best opportunity to protect the things that are most important on our landscapes.” The investment will fund mechanical treatments that will improve fire containment, prescribed fire, and firefighter safety. The Forest Service said it will work with

communities, landowners, industrial partners and collaboratives to reduce wildfire risks to highly-valued resources within or adjacent to the Willamette National Forest.

Montana Company Awarded $1 Million Grant for Mass Timber

Stoltze Timber Systems in Columbia Falls, Montana, is receiving $1 million in U.S. Forest Service funding to support the development of a wood processing plant and allow for the implementation of new timber water crossings. Pat Clark, managing partner of manufacturing at Stoltze, said the timber company was awarded the money after applying for the wood innovation grant with the Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Forest Service. Clark said that previous wood innovation grants were used primarily for research. This funding will let Stoltze buy the machinery and set up a manufacturing facility for mass timber projects using small diameter timber. “It allows us to add value to the current saw and timber products by turning them into engineered wood products,” Clark said. While the funds won’t cover the whole project, it is a step in the right direction. Sammi Johnson, the marketing and communications director at Stolze, said that it boils down to a resource need: There are a lot of small trees in Northwest Montana with nowhere to go. “It takes a while to get to a place where we can use those trees for something valuable,” Johnson said. “This helps solve a big industry-wide resource problem.”

DC Equipment Acquires Madill Brand of Yarders, Loaders

New Zealand Company’s Goal Is Creating Safer, More Productive Steep-Slope Logging

ew Zealand-based logging equip-

ment manufacturer DC Equipment, which manufactures the Falcon brand of steep-slope logging equipment, has acquired the Madill brand from Nicholson Group, a British Columbia company that has held the brand for the last 12 years. Madill, which has a history dating to 1911, manufactures tower and swing yarders as well as log loaders. The brand is synonymous with cable logging across the globe and is known to loggers across North America. Madill has changed hands over the last few decades and been under various ownership structures, from competing manufacturers to international investment groups. Nicholson Group had owned Madill since 2011 and added the products to its own line of debarking equipment. Dale Ewers, owner and founder of DC Equipment, who also is a logger in New 6

Zealand, said the acquisition provides an opportunity to achieve DC Equipment’s mission of “creating a safer and more productive steep-slope logging industry throughout the world.” The move also will benefit other industries, he said. “Madill is known for its durability, ability to perform, and longevity, which is important in this industry,” said Dale, “and those strong equipment features align with our current brand, Falcon.” “We don’t plan to reinvent Madill products,” continued Dale. “We believe there’s tremendous heritage, and the Madill machines work exceptionally well in steep slope ground. However, we do see an opportunity to integrate some of DC Equipment’s current and future technology and innovation.” The move will benefit logging contractors, said Dale. “We’re not here to be the biggest manufacturer. We’re here to provide

TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

the best solution for our customers,” he said. Current Madill customers will be able to receive parts and service through their existing channels until updated otherwise. Updates on the acquisition will be posted on the DC Equipment and Madill websites and social media. Madill customers with questions should contact DC Equipment via its website, www.dcforestryequipment.com. DC Equipment has manufactured steepslope logging equipment under their Falcon brand since 2010. Falcon products include motorized grapple carriages, winch assist machines, yarders, and camera systems. Falcon equipment has over 1 million operational hours and zero harm. Over 3,000 Madill yarders have been produced. Madill equipment operates around the world, especially in North America and New Zealand.

California Couple Keeps the Focus On Stewardship, Forest Management

ORESTHILL, California

– Louis Godon grew up hearing logging stories as a young boy sitting in the back of his grandmother’s bar. That’s where loggers would go at night after a long day in the woods. Louis was only six or seven at the time, but he would settle in and listen. “I wanted to be like one of those guys,” he remembered, “but it was different times then. The pants were cut off. The cork boots. I just thought they were pretty cool.” He wasn’t just influenced by those men who came into the bar. His mother was a logger who got into the business as a 28-yearold mother of two. She started by subcontracting timber sales as a log truck driver. “She had two kids to feed, and she thought that was a good opportunity and a good way to provide for them,” said Louis. Logging provided for them then – and now. Louis, 51, worked for his mother’s company on and off in the beginning of his career. He also cut timber on a helicopter block and worked for a cutting contractor as a production feller. He and his wife, Amanda, decided to start their own business in 2000. Their company, Volcano Creek Logging, is named for a creek that runs through the property they lived on at the time.

Volcano Creek Logging is based in the community of Foresthill, which is about 50 miles northeast of Sacramento and located on the southern edge of the Tahoe National Forest. With nearly 40 employees, the company delivers about 20 million board feet of logs per year. The Godons have three children – two sons and a daughter. Like her grandmother and mother, their daughter can’t wait to take her seat in a logging machine. “I love what we do,” Amanda said. “This life we lead, being in the woods, supporting our family of crew members, and just making a difference in our area – is huge. It gives you joy, and you feel accomplished.” Amanda has a background in business management, which she puts to good use helping to oversee the company and its finances. “Louis was raised under a strong female and logger, so he supported me being massively involved in the company and the industry,” she said. Volcano Creek Logging buys timber and also manages a small amount of its own land. The company harvests timber in the Tahoe National Forest and on Sierra Pacific Industries (SPI) land. The region supports ponderosa pine and Douglas fir. Logs are delivered to SPI mills in Lincoln, Oroville,

Louis and Amanda Godon, owners and operators of Volcano Creek Logging in Foresthill, California. ‘I love what we do,’ says Amanda. ‘This life we lead, being in the woods, supporting our family of crew members, and just making a difference in our area – is huge. It gives you joy, and you feel accomplished.’ 8

Anderson, Shasta, and Quincy. A recent job involved salvage logging at 6,800-foot elevation on private land. “The trees we harvested were dead,” Amanda explained. “The western pine beetle has had a massive effect on our forests, all the way down from southern Sierras to northern Sierras. It’s catastrophic. It will destroy a whole forest.”

Forest Management

The impact of insect infestation is one of the reasons why the Godons are so passionate about forest management. The beetles are stealthy killers, noted Amanda; they destroy a tree and attach to the next one before the first one has shown signs of distress. “We need to manage the forest,” said Amanda. “We need to thin it and make it

healthy. Then when we have droughts or bug infestations, if the forest is managed, then it’s more resilient.” Resilience is required of any logger – in the woods and in public opinion. The Godons say most people don’t understand logging and how it benefits plant and animal life. “I love caring for the land,” Amanda said. TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

“I wish that I could convey to every part of our society what needs to happen for the forest to be managed properly. We wouldn’t have catastrophic fires. We would have beautiful forests. The trees would grow well. This is a sustainable product that we can grow and harvest.” (continued on page 10) 9

ContractorProfile (continued from page 9) The Godons feel the direct impact of massive forest fires that have struck the West in recent years through challenging conditions in the saw log market. Wood has to be processed as quickly as possible, and the fires result in mills flooded with burned timber, which also impacts the ability of landowners to sell their timber.

Good Stewards

The Godons take their responsibility seriously to be good stewards. “We have to do everything right,” Amanda said. “Our footprint has to be light. We cannot have damage, nor do we want damage. We want to go out there and do a good job. We want to give logging a great name.” Volcano Creek Logging relies on Waratah harvester and processor attachments. The Godons chose Waratah for its durability and reliability. A Cat 552 leveling feller buncher is matched with a Waratah HTH624C harvester head, and a Tigercat LH855E leveling track harvester is paired with a Waratah HTH623C harvester head. The company does business with equipment dealers Holt of California in Pleasant Grove, which represents Cat, and Bejac out of Anderson, which represents Tigercat and TimberPro. The Waratah HTH624C is the larger of the two harvester attachments mentioned above and are models in the company’s 600 series of attachments. It has been proven in

medium to large wood harvesting and processing. The Waratah HTH624C can easily handle species such as radiata pine, poplar, and aspen up to 32 inches in diameter. It features a rugged frame, large synchronized feed rollers, excellent drive power, precision delimbing for production – whether working at a landing or felling and processing at the stump. The Waratah 624C also features a rearmounted head module for increased protection and less shock load, increased top-saw cut capacity, superior hose routing, upsized main saw, strengthened hanging bracket, wider frame, and a number of feed-roller options. It can be paired with the TimberRite control and measuring system for precision processing, even in extreme conditions. “Waratah products are built to work,” said Louis. “They’re the best as far as I’m concerned. With the right operator, we can get 30 to 40 loads a day in the right material.” The Godons value Waratah products for efficiency in the forest, and they know they can count on the company with product support to minimize downtime. “Waratah has been there for us,” said Amanda. “They have actually walked us through a repair, down to having something shipped for us overnight. We’ve had a support guy drive parts down so we can be up and running right away. The support is bar none.” Volcano Creek Logging also is equipped with, among other things, two TimberPro feller bunchers, two Cat shovel loaders, six Cat skidders, plus supporting equipment.

Family and Future

The Godons have made strategic decisions about their future, creating two affiliated business units. A trucking unit hauls logs and equipment and also subcontracts to haul for other loggers. The other business unit provides services to masticate vegetation to reduce fuels and also performs fire suppression work. “We have diversified over the years, hopefully making us less affected by the extreme highs and lows of our industry,” said Amanda. Every employee is trained and certified in first aid, CPR and firefighting. Volcano Creek Logging offers health insurance, dental insurance, and a retirement plan. Volcano Creek Logging is an active member of Associated California Loggers, American Logging Council, and the Sierra Cascade Logging Conference. The company earned Firewise USA ® recognition for its community. Going on 23 years in business, the Godons hope their children will one day run Volcano Creek Logging. “We have children that want to be here, and hopefully once we’re dead and gone, the children will take over and have the same philosophies as we do,” Amanda said. “I’m proud of what we’ve built and our succession.” Inspired by their children, Louis and Amanda said there’s nowhere to go but up for Volcano Creek Logging. “My middle boy wants a big helicopter,” Louis said. “He’s got big plans to fly logs. We’ll see what happens.”

ASHVILLE, Oregon –

ShaneCo Timber was twice as big a few years ago, but owner Shane Russell scaled back the company and sold some equipment. Now he is in a ‘sweet spot.’ “I don’t want to jinx us, but we haven’t had any issues with manpower once I figured out the balance of the workload, manpower and equipment,” said Russell. “We now have a good core group of guys, and it’s made all the difference in the world. In fact, I hesitate to even call it a job because I love what I do so much.” ShaneCo Timber is based in Nashville, which is located in Oregon’s Coast Range, almost midway between Eugene and Salem but closer to the coast. It is 30 miles each direction from the warm, dry, mild Willamette Valley to the east and the rugged terrain and inclement weather of the coast. The region has abundant resources of Douglas fir, grand fir, western hemlock, Sitka spruce and western red cedar.

PIERCE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU... WHEREVER THERE IS.

Jon Walker operates a John Deere 959 track feller buncher with Quadco 27C hot saw for ShaneCo Timber. The company added the machine to increase production. Russell, 42, works primarily for private landowners. He typically does the entire harvest from start to finish. ShaneCo Timber does everything from clear-cutting to thinning and also salvage logging. The company builds its own roads unless they require extensive work, in which case Russell hires contractors to build them. The customer is always going to remember what he leaves behind, noted Russell, so he takes a lot of pride in cleaning up the job after the harvest is done. Logging slash is usually formed into piles. For liability reasons, though, Russell does not burn the piles. He lets the landowner handle that or contract for someone else to do it. The company has 12 employees. “These are the people behind ShaneCo Timber’s success,” said Russell. “We’re very grateful for the hard work they do.” He usually has two crews working on different jobs, sometimes three in the summer, depending on the workload. “However, if we’re up against a deadline, we will sometimes have ‘all hands on deck’ at one site to ensure we stay on schedule.”

When he started out, it was small landowners with about 5 acres that kept the company busy. Now the average job is about 40 acres although some thinning jobs are as big as 200 acres. Russell relies heavily on the business relationship with a dealer and their support when it comes to buying a machine. He credits good relationships with Scott Panter at Papé Machinery in Tangent and Phil Maddux at Triad Machinery in Coburg with helping to keep the company’s equipment running. You never get back downtime, noted Russell. His most recent investment in equipment was a John Deere 959M track feller buncher equipped with a Quadco 27C hot saw that was purchased from Papé Machinery, which represents John Deere. The 959M is powered by a John Deere PowerTech™ Plus engine that generates 330 hp. It has nearly 84,000 pounds of tractive force and can lift 17,570 pounds at maximum reach. The feller

Link-Belt machine loads a log truck. ShaneCo Timber contracts for all hauling. ‘T&M Trucking, our number one company from nearby Eddyville, even does our dispatch,’ says Shane Russell. (continued from page 13) buncher has cab leveling, and a slope monitoring system is optional. Russell added the machine to increase production. He cited the machine’s operator comfort, hydraulic oil flow, and lifting power. “Jon Walker, (buncher operator) our newest team member, helped in making this decision,” he said. “He is used to running these machines and is very good at it. And we all agree that Pape’s service is top-notch.” ShaneCo Timber also is equipped with a John Deere 959M buncher with a Quadco 27B head for felling. It has a John Deere 803MH track harvester matched with a Waratah 622C and a Link-Belt 3740 with a Waratah 623C for processing logs. Loading is handled by a pair of Link-Belt 3740 log

loaders with Pierce grapples. Yarding operations are conducted with a Madill 071 Tower, a Hitachi ZX350 excavator set up as a yoder, and Acme 23H and 10H carriages. In addition, a pair of John Deere 650K dozers are equipped with John Deere 4000S winches. The company also has a Cat 420F backhoe. Russell delivers a lot of wood to the Interfor sawmill in Philomath and the Western Cascade Industries sawmill in Toledo. Other customers include Murphy Veneer (Sweet Home), Hull-Oakes Lumber Co. (Monroe), Hampton Lumber (Willamina), Swanson Brothers Lumber (Noti), Zip-O-Log Mills (Eugene), and Sierra Pacific Industries (Eugene). All those hauls are within 100 miles of Nashville. Markets have been good, Russell indicated. “Honestly, a lot of the local mills’

domestic pricing has been pretty good, which is an incentive to keep our business as local as we can,” he said. “We only run into issues during summer when we kind of ramp up production of ground-based-type work.” Russell contracts for all hauling. The company has “a great source of owner-operators who take good care of us throughout the year,” he said. “T&M Trucking, our number one company from nearby Eddyville, even does our dispatch. Keeping good relationships with our local mills helps keep our trucking turnaround down.” Russell grew up in this region of Oregon and comes from a logging family. “Dad, his brother, Bob, and their dad, Rob, ran Triple R Logging for a long time before giving it up in the ’90s when the federal government dramatically reduced logging to protect

ContractorProfile the northern spotted owl,” said Russell. “I got into working in the woods at a young age by helping them every weekend that I could.” Later he also worked part-time for his father-in-law, Ronny Gassner, who was instrumental in helping Russell start his business. When he and his father, Don, decided to go into business together, they were hand felling for Bruer Contract Cutting, and Russell also was working part-time as an arborist. “We worked up our logs with a chainsaw until we got stable enough to start buying equipment,” said Russell. ShaneCo Timber is a corporation set up in his name “but to me, Dad and I are partners.” “I’m not so sure that my parents would have chosen this career path for me, but being able to work with my dad for a long time has been great,” Russell said. His father, known as ‘Papa Don,’ continues to work and most days runs a loader. He is 67 but has no immediate plans to retire. “He is one of the hardest workers I’ve ever known,” said Russell. “Due to his work ethic and knowledge of our industry, he is very respected and very good at what he does.” A typical day for Russell is “doing whatever the men need me to do.” His first priority is getting new work, then cutting timber, working the rigging, operating the Link-Belt 3740 processor and building roads. “My wife usually tries to pin me down once a week or so to help out in the office.” They have an office in their home but this summer plan to build a new office next to the company’s shop. Russell is a stickler for safety and proud of his company’s safety record. “We take safety very seriously, and our men know it,” he said. “We have monthly on-site safety meetings, and we’re always talking about safety. Our outstanding record shows the crew buys into it.” His wife, Amber, also comes from a long line of loggers. She is a partner in the business and takes care of the company’s finances. “I like to point out that I married up and am lucky that she just hasn’t figured that out yet,” said Russell. Russell keeps a handle on insurance and all required certifications. He maintains memberships in Associated Oregon Loggers and Oregon Professional Loggers. Russell has a great reputation with his customers, noted Panter. “Shane…has an exceptional reputation with everyone in his area,” said Panter. “He worked for a couple of the larger forestry guys around, so he kind of cut his teeth with them. He started small, but because of the person he is and his background, people just want to work with him.” Maddux has long ties to the Russell family, having sold equipment to Shane’s

father and also his father-in-law. “He’ll call me and say, ‘Look Phil, I’m thinking about doing this, and what do you think?’ I give him my opinion,” said Maddux, “and he tries to take whatever opinions he’s received and make an educated decision on what he wants to purchase. He’s smart, he’s young, and he takes good care of his crew and his equipment. He’s just one of the guys that I really enjoy.” Russell’s son, Alek, 19, is a student at Boise State University. His daughter, Aspen, 16, is in high school. He and his wife like to

spend as much time with them as possible. “My next biggest hobby outside of family and work is elk hunting,” said Russell. “Everyone around here shuts down operations for a week or so and goes hunting. A lot of the guys I hunt with, I work with, and that includes clients, sub-contractors, truckers, people running the mills, the same guys we see at ball games and in town having breakfast. That’s what it’s like living and working in a community like this, and I love it.”

TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

LMA, WASHINGTON – The use of high-powered drones in logging has positively impacted the industry over the last several years, and Hilltop Aerial has played an important role. Not only did they have a hand in developing one of the first timber-focused drone prototypes, the company also has continued to refine and improve its technology. Prior to Hilltop Aerial’s inception, longtime loggers Mark Standley, his son, Mark Standley Jr., logger/drone pilot Tim Ruyle, and journeyman logger Mark Deutschman combined their expertise under the company banner of Pacific UAV Technology in 2017. Together they developed the initial logging drone used in the Pacific Northwest – the Hextor 1. Standley Jr., who’s been logging for more than three decades, explained how the initial drone idea came about. “Several years ago, a cable supplier and friend shared a video of drones being used for logging down in New Zealand. The idea was intriguing, and it wasn’t long before we had that first prototype up and running here in the Pacific Northwest.” After streamlining their efforts, Hilltop Aerial was formed in 2021, and just like the drones they create, the business took off. The make-up of the company, based in Banks, Oregon, includes Standley Jr. serving as operations manager in addition to his vice president duties at Bighorn Logging. Other Hilltop Aerial team members include Standley’s son, Kyler, who is a coowner, drone builder, and pilot; his daughter, Madelynn, also a co-owner and office manager; and Trevor Kent, who builds drones and serves as a programmer. Hilltop Aerial has delivered in excess of 50 drones to more than 40 companies. “We have sold drones now to customers in Washington, Oregon, California, Texas, and Chile in South America,” said Madelynn. “We also provide large-scale drones and services to logging companies, forestry departments, tree planters, power line companies, land owners, fire departments, search and rescue operations, and more.” Hilltop Aerial’s two drone options include: Hexacopter – This is the workhorse and top-selling drone. Before you finish your first cup of coffee, the Hexacopter can finish a 5,000-foot road layout in rough terrain. Quadcopter – A much smaller drone but packed with power. It’s great for smaller operations. You can also add different cameras, ranging from thermal cameras to gimbal cameras that offer full visibility while flying. For both drone models, a full-service Hilltop Aerial support team is available for any issues or questions.

A CUT ABOVE THE REST

With the controls in his hands, Bruce Baker prepares to send the drone airborne. An iPad on the controller can track the drone’s flying time and distance.

Game Changer

Given the nature of logging and its physical demands, the benefits of drones quickly began turning heads for a number of reasons. For those companies that have embraced drones in their timber operations, none are likely to go back to what was ‘business as usual.’ Roger Smith of RL Smith Logging Inc. is a convert and believer. “We’ve been using drones now for more than three years,” he said, having purchased a Hilltop Aerial Hexacopter drone in January 2020. “We totally embrace technology in the logging industry, and the drone is at the top of our list for its variety of ways it can assist us in the field. Also, the drone saves us time and money every day we use it, and it has drastically cut down on our manual cable logging efforts.” RL Smith Logging is based in Elma, which is about 30 miles due west of Olympia, and works primarily in that coastal region of Washington. The company is a contract timber harvester for Rayonier, Weyerhaeuser, Port Blakely, Campbell Global, Anderson & Middleton Lumber, and various private small landowners. RL Smith Logging supplies mills for SPI, Northwest Hardwoods, Local Manufacturing, Northwest Forest Link, Southport Forest Products, Willis Enterprises, and Pac Veneer. RL Smith Logging relies heavily on Tigercat forestry machines. It is equipped with a pair of Tigercat 870 feller bunchers, a Tigercat 855 with a grapple saw, and two Tigercat 880 machines matched with Waratah 624 processors. In addition it has Tigercat 880 and 890 logging shovels and a Tigercat 625 skidder. Rounding out its inventory of equipment are three Link-Belt 3750 loading shovels and three Doosan 225 loading shovels. The company also has a fleet of 11 log trucks. Where the drone comes into play is with the company’s Summit Yoder on a Cat 330D and TFS Harvestline on a Cat 568. They also partner with Smith’s nephew, Nate Murray of Roosevelt Logging, which uses the drone in conjunction with its Madill 172 tower.

EquipmentProfile (continued from page 19) Using the Hilltop Aerial Hexacopter drone extensively for stringing road lines saves a great deal of time and manpower, noted Smith. “Flying a rope 3,000 feet or more would normally take two guys all day,” he said, “but with the drone, it takes about 15 minutes.” With that kind of efficiency, “The drone paid for itself in the first three months we used it.” “We can also use drones to examine an area, like steep hills or ravines, by flying the drone overhead to provide a clearer, better look,” added Smith. Smith’s wife, Carmen, who is the company’s office manager, further explained how RL Smith Logging began using a drone. “We first saw a presentation in 2017 in Scottsdale, Arizona, during the annual Pacific Logging Congress,” she said. “It was a fairly new concept then, but we continued to follow Hilltop Aerial. We finally reached out to them in 2019 to purchase a drone.” Since then, the Standleys (Madelynn and Kyler) “have been terrific to work with,” she added, “from parts and service to just answering general questions. They quickly respond and then reach out to see if we need anything. Their customer service skills are much appreciated.”

Bruce Baker is the drone pilot for RL Smith Logging in Elma, Washington. He is shown with the company’s Hexacopter from Hilltop Aerial. With six propellers, the Hexacopter can pull 70-80 pounds, enough haywire for about 5,000 feet. Bruce Baker, a former hook tender and truck driver, is the sole drone pilot for RL Smith Logging. With more than 43 years of experience in logging, he serves on the company’s management team. Baker has racked up more than 1.3 million feet of cable laying distance with the drone. One of the valuable features of the drone is the iPad on the controller, observed Baker.

TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

“You can track the flying time of each project along with the exact distance the drone travels.” RL Smith Logging has been in business for nearly 32 years and has 34 employees. “We’ve come a long way since starting with just a tower, shovel, D6 Cat, crew bus, pickup, and fire trailer,” said Smith.

EquipmentProfile Drone Benefits

In cable logging, the tract is divided into sections and a series of roads or skyline paths with the yarder at the top of a summit. In order to set up a sky line for the carriage, a worker – usually a hook tender or someone else – has to walk up and down the area pulling a haywire or strawline by hand. The haywire is a small cable that is used to pull up the main line or sky line into place. It may be 3,000 feet long. For each 3,000 feet of haywire, there would be 12 250-foot sections to pack and string up and down a hillside, each section weighing about 40 pounds. The task of walking over the terrain and pulling the haywire into place may take a few hours to a couple of days to complete. It’s a tough job and physically demanding. While the worker is performing this task, if the crew is on site, they are waiting for him to complete it. The drone can perform the same task in minutes. It flies across the area with a rope that is then connected to the haywire. Then the rope can be pulled by a machine to bring in the haywire and the main line. The drone can pull 3,000 feet of light-weight rope in minutes. In addition, the skyline may need to be moved several times on the job site, depending on the layout of the job. The drone can do it with the rope. With the drone, multiple

skyline paths can be strung quickly at one time with the light-weight rope; loggers don’t have to wait until a section is done. RL Smith Logging has 20,000 feet of various lengths of ropes to fly multiple roads for multiple sides. A yarder logging job may cost a contractor $12-16 per minute in equipment and wages, according to Madelyn. Waiting for these skyline paths to be strung with the cable line is time and money. It also helps contractors since there is a shortage of labor in logging. There has been a big emphasis to get boots off the ground to improve safety, and the industry has made big strides to accomplish that, noted Smith. “The industry is improving safety, and this saves wear and tear on people and avoids injuries. This is an easy way to accomplish that.” The drones weigh 30-40 pounds and can pull 70-80 pounds, enough haywire for about 5,000 feet. The Hilltop Aerial Hexacopter comes with a remote controller, a GoPro camera and mount, two sets of rechargeable batteries, and a battery charger. One set of batteries provides enough power for the drone to perform a 5,000-foot layout. The smaller Quadcopter drone, which comes with the same accessories, has the capacity to perform

TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

a 3,000-foot layout. Hilltop Aerial drones are warrantied for one year. Hilltop Aerial provides training, at least a day or more until the loggers feel comfortable flying the drone alone. Some loggers are good after an hour of practice. Madelyn compared it to learning to ride a bicycle: once you learn the basics of flying, you can do it with your eyes closed. The company also provides 24/7 support. (For more information about Hilltop Aerial drones, visit the company’s website at www.hilltop-aerial.com.) All in all, using a drone in logging operations improves safety, efficiency, productivity, and profitability. It reduces fatigue, and keeps loggers more aware of their surroundings. The two most important reasons to use a drone in logging operations are the safety element and time, according to Standley Jr. “There is also significant dollar savings when you do the math,” he noted. One unforeseen benefit of using drones is their appeal to the younger generation, observed Standley Jr. He linked their appeal to the popularity of video games. “This has been a good tool for attracting younger employees into the field,” he said. “And, given the manpower shortage, adding a drone to the mix is like giving us an extra person, per se.”

YAMHILL LOG SCALING & GRADING BUREAU

SAFETYALERT Yarder Engineer Pinned, Crushed by Loader Background

On a fall day in the Pacific Northwest, the victim had been operating a yarder on a timber sale until the shutdown whistle (for fire season restrictions) alerted the two choker setters to head up to the landing. The log loader operator had broken a hydraulic hose on a limb that was sticking out of a deck of logs at the landing. The loader operator asked the yarder engineer to help him fix the hose. They worked together and fixed the hose. Weather was not considered a factor.

Personal Characteristics

Experience and training of the crew is unknown.

Unsafe Acts or Conditions

The yarder engineer picked up one of the landing chainsaws and went over near the log loader to flush cut the butt end(s) of the decked trees/logs. The loader operator walked over to the log loader and climbed up into the cab. The loader operator started up

the machine and rotated the loader to move the grapples over the landing to where trees were staged for processing.

Accident/Injury

As the log loader was rotating, the victim, who was standing behind the loader, was struck and crushed between the right corner of the loader’s counterweight and the butt end of a log. He was seriously injured with lacerations to his back and internal abdominal damage. It is unknown if the employee ever returned to work.

struck by, or crushed during operation. An unimpaired horizontal clearance of not less than three (3) feet should be maintained between the rotating superstructure of any machine and any adjacent object or surface. The supervisor on site should be provided with adequate information to acknowledge that an employee would be in a hazardous location, and potentially injured, when the log loader was moved or rotated. Source: Forest Resources Association

Recommendations for Correction

Workers on the ground near operating machines should never approach within range of the machine without receiving visual acknowledgment from the operator that the operator understands their intention. Machines operated close to each other should always be separated by enough distance to prevent nearby personnel from getting pinned, TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

NEW PRODUCTS Tigercat Unveils Compact Skidder

Tigercat has introduced the new 612 grapple skidder, which is designed to excel in tight selective harvesting applications. It is the second variation to be built on the 612 platform after the release of the Europeanfocused 612 dual winch skidder earlier this year.

Key design features include the oscillating center section and the optional blade tongs. The oscillating center section narrows the stance of the machine, allowing easier navigation through tight stands. The optional blade tongs offer additional versatility for decking wood and other secondary duties. The Tigercat 612 is equipped with the company’s FPT N67 Stage V engine, delivering 208 hp. Combined with Tigercat’s efficient drive system, the 612 skidder is powerful and fuel efficient. The operator’s cab is spacious with clear sight lines. The heavy-duty air ride suspension seat is climate controlled and fully adjustable. Turnaround provides increased comfort and easy entry and exit from either side of the machine. The operator enjoys full control of all machine functions in any position within the 220-degree range. For more information, visit www.tigercat.com.

Treemetrics Develops Real-Time Forest Monitoring and Measuring

Treemetrics, a world-leading provider of forest inventory and management solutions, has announced the launch of its new ground-breaking ‘real-time forest monitoring and measurement’ platform. In a world-first innovation developed at the company’s headquarters in Cork, Ireland, the platform utilizes advanced satellite imagery processing software to provide real-time insights into forest health and productivity. The Treemetrics platform offers a range

of powerful features to help forestry professionals and forest carbon developers to monitor and manage forests. It is immediately available to users, who can access high-resolution satellite imagery, as well as advanced analytics tools to track changes in tree cover, biomass, and other important metrics. The platform also includes an intuitive user interface and easy-to-use mapping tools to help users visualize and analyze their data. “We are most excited to introduce this new forest monitoring platform, which represents a major advance in the way that forestry professionals and forest owners can measure and manage their forests,” said Treemetrics CEO Enda Keane. “With the ability to access near real-time satellite imagery and advanced analytics tools, our platform provides a powerful tool for accurately calculating forest carbon credits.”

The Treemetrics platform is designed to be scalable and flexible, allowing users to monitor forests of any size or complexity. It is also compatible with a range of existing forest inventory and management systems, making it easy to integrate into existing workflows. “One challenge in measuring forest carbon is that forests are dynamic ecosystems, and they can change over time due to factors such as tree growth, mortality, and disturbance events such as fires and storms,” noted Keane. “This means that the carbon capturing potential of a forest can also change over time, and it is important to regularly monitor and update the carbon inventory.” “We believe that our platform represents the future of forest monitoring,” added Keane. “With its advanced technology and intuitive design, it is the ideal solution for

TimberWest Magazine — May/June 2023 — www.forestnet.com

forestry professionals looking to take their operations to the next level.” In November, it was announced that Treemetrics was selected to participate in an important European Union project aimed at mitigating and adapting to climate change by better monitoring EU forests.

Volvo Electric Excavator Involved in Pilot Project

Volvo Construction Equipment will work with WM, formerly known as Waste Management, on a pilot project with the Volvo EC230 Electric excavator. The machine, at 23 tons, represents a major advancement in the construction industry’s move toward zero-emission equipment solutions. WM, North America’s leading provider of comprehensive environmental solutions, will test the mid-size electric excavator at a WM facility on the East Coast. The pilot project will include the EC230 Electric performing the same tasks diesel excavators do in waste applications. WM will track data and share feedback with Volvo CE. The pilot project kicks off a number of customer tests of the mid-size electric excavator in various applications on the North American power grid. Volvo CE plans to make the machine commercially available in North America in 2024. “This is the first pilot in North America, but the EC230 Electric excavator has been thoroughly tested by customers overseas, and in each case, it has offered the same performance as its diesel equivalent with the

added benefit of no direct emissions,” said Stephen Roy, president of Region North America, Volvo CE. “We’re excited to work with WM on a project that aligns with both of our organizations’ values of being good environmental stewards.” The Volvo EC230 Electric excavator is a general-purpose machine designed to run in the same applications as a comparably sized diesel excavator, including extraction, earthmoving and grading for site preparation in the building segment, as well as waste and scrap handling in the recycling and waste segments. It has the same digging forces and lifting

NEW PRODUCTS capacities as its diesel equivalent in the Volvo CE lineup, and it supports the same attachments and services. The main difference is that it is powered by batteries. The lack of an engine results in zero direct emissions, less noise, reduced maintenance and lower total cost of ownership. When the EC230 Electric excavator becomes commercially available in 2024, it will join the Volvo CE six-machine lineup of electric machines, which is one of the largest in the industry.

Tigercat Offers Silviculture Carrier

Tigercat has developed the 630H silviculture carrier for post-harvest operations. It replaces modified agricultural tractors with a purpose-built carrier to pull mounding and plow implements in preparation for replanting operations.

Tigercat is putting focus on gaining efficiencies in the silviculture side of the forest industry. Many forestry companies struggle to prepare post-harvest sites for replanting with modified farm tractors. These machines are not up to the task, often suffering from insufficient power, cooling capacity and structural durability. The Tigercat 630H silviculture carrier addresses these deficiencies. Based on Tigercat’s skidder platform, the machine is equipped with hydraulic connectors and several drawbar receiver variations to adapt to a variety of plow or mounding implement connection points. In addition, the carrier can be equipped with an optional winch and bolt-on fairlead system. The whole package is factory equipped and ready to work.

Steps to Help Reduce Workers’ Compensation Claims By Jeff Cecchini

ogging work is the most danger-

ous job in the country, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Out of 100,000 full-time logging workers in 2021 alone, 82 were killed due to workrelated incidents. Hazardous working conditions, the potential for long-term disability claims, and the high risk of occupational diseases caused by prolonged exposure to certain materials used in these jobs all lead to workers filing workers’ compensation claims. It’s no surprise that the industry reports a large number of claims annually. As such, companies must be especially vigilant when it comes to creating a safe environment that minimizes potential risks and encourages employee well-being at every level. Here are four proactive measures your company can establish to reduce work-related injuries — and workers’ compensation claims overall.

1. Establish Pre-hire Screenings

One of the most effective ways for logging and lumber companies to reduce workers’ compensation claims is to implement pre-hire screenings. This step enables employers to assess a prospective employee’s physical abilities to determine if they can do the job. Screenings help ensure that only qualified employees are hired, which can help reduce work-related injuries. Assessing an employee’s strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, endurance and agility prior to hiring them also helps eliminate any unforeseen risks associated with certain duties. Consider hiring a third-party professional to perform pre-hire employee physicals and functional capacity evaluations to help identify and manage potential risks. Through these screenings, employers can acquire an understanding of an individual’s medical history, as well as any underlying health issues that may affect their ability to perform certain tasks.

2. Maintain or Improve Your Physical Workspace

Creating a safe work environment not only leads to improved productivity among employees, it can also reduce workers’ compensation claims for those working inside or outdoors. Regular inspection of worksites helps identify potential safety hazards and any other potential risks, which then can be promptly addressed. Employers can also take additional steps to promote employee wellness and safety 50

within the physical workspace, including: Allocating areas for stretching or other exercise Encouraging stretching can help reduce fatigue-related injuries and promote better posture while working. Regular stretches can also improve blood circulation throughout the body, which can help prevent muscular aches and pains associated with extended periods of sitting in one position. Providing healthy food options This not only encourages employees to make healthier dietary choices but also fosters an atmosphere of health awareness. Providing ergonomic workstations for those who work indoors Ergonomic workstations reduce back strain caused by poor posture while sitting down for long hours at a desk or computer station. Encouraging walking to boost cardiovascular activity This includes encouraging the use of stairwells versus elevators for those who work inside a facility or using outdoor walking trails when taking breaks. This encourages physical activity during breaks from work and helps relieve stress during busy periods in logging operations.

3. Promote Physical and Emotional Health

Stress and anxiety can increase the chances of injury and illness. Implementing formal wellness initiatives is one way to help improve your employees’ physical health and reduce fatigue-related injuries. Employers can start by offering stress management classes and seminars as well as providing access to mental health care providers or counselors if needed. This can help employees cope with anxiety or depression while promoting a positive work environment. Companies should also encourage regular breaks throughout the day and provide rest areas where employees can take time away from their desks to stretch or do light exercises. Similarly, employers can offer incentives for participation in fitness activities, such as discounts on gym memberships or reimbursements for exercise classes. Beyond physical health, employers should also focus on fostering a sense of emotional wellbeing among staff. Creating an open dialogue between supervisors and employees helps businesses create an atmosphere of trust within the workplace that promotes communication and understanding among all levels of staff.

Additionally, employers should provide resources for employees who may be dealing with personal issues outside of work. This includes grief counseling services or financial advisors who can assist with budgeting advice. Providing resources such as the ones described above not only shows support for those struggling but also demonstrates that your company cares about its workers beyond their job performance alone. The result: increased morale and satisfaction among workers.

4. Focus on the Tasks at Hand

When it comes to logging and lumber companies, the nature of the work often poses the greatest risks for worker’s compensation claims. As such, employers must take steps to ensure that employees are properly trained and equipped to carry out their duties safely. Establishing clear and concise work rules is essential for reducing the likelihood of work-related injuries. Education and training also should be provided to all new employees to ensure they understand how to complete tasks in a safe manner. Implementing post-hire training sessions that emphasize safety protocols and regulations also helps your company stay compliant with relevant labor laws. Additionally, employers should provide employees with all necessary tools and equipment needed to complete tasks and avoid using potentially dangerous improvised methods. For jobs that are especially injury-prone, employers should implement a daily checkin routine so workers can report any potential safety issues or hazards they come across while carrying out their duties. This can help identify any areas of risk before an incident occurs and allows you to address them promptly before any harm is done. This also allows you to adjust any safety protocols or procedures if needed in order to protect your workers from harm. Ultimately, enforcing regular check-ins encourages open communication between managers and staff which, in turn, fosters trust amongst personnel. Taking proactive measures to reduce work-related injuries and foster employee health and well-being will go a long way in reducing work-related injuries and ultimately, workers’ compensation claims.
