Roadside Debris Grinding

Project Number: #FR0000685

This project facilitated the recovery and utilization of residual fibre by piloting various sorting, grinding and hauling opportunities. The pilot was evaluated by Forest Product Innovations Ltd. and will guide future incremental hauling opportunities. The fibre was otherwise uneconomic to transport from logged areas and would have been left on site and burned. This funding facilitated the transportation to various secondary manufacturing facilities both in the Kamloops area as well as on the BC Coast. The program expanded significantly after the completion of this successful pilot.
