McBride Community Forest – Grinding Roadside Residuals

Project Number: #FR0000124

This project enabled the utilization of uneconomic, non-merchantable low-grade fibre accumulations resulting from harvesting activities in the McBride Community Forest. Instead of being burned, the fibre was ground and hauled to the Pacific BioEnergy pellet facility in Prince George. This project helped to support the Province’s greenhouse gas reduction targets, provide employment, and maximize fibre utilization.
