Pulp Log Recovery for Coastal Pulp Mill Utilization

This project enabled the transportation of pulp wood otherwise uneconomic to haul. The pulp logs were processed and delivered to Bella Coola where they were stored before being transported via log barge to the Harmac Pacific Pulp Mill in Nanaimo. Utilization of pulp wood also contributed to wildfire reduction by recovering this fuel instead of leaving it in forested areas. This activity also provides employment and reduces greenhouse gas emission by recovering fibre that may otherwise have been burned.
