This project enables low-grade pulp and biolog fibre that would otherwise be burned to be recovered and trucked to either the East Fraser Fiber chipping plant in Mackenzie or the Fort St. James Green Energy facility. From there, the fibre is then either used in the energy plant or made available for purchase and use by other secondary fibre users in the region such as Mackenzie Pulp. This project helps to support the Province’s greenhouse gas reduction targets by augmenting the transportation of low-grade fibre from harvest blocks to be utilized rather than burned.
