Logging downtime widens with extended mill closures in the north
The Central Interior Logging Association reports Rustad will stay down 40 more days while P G Sawmill Fort St James and Canfor mills face an additional 25 days of downtime. Other mills ease shorter shutdowns as low lumber prices and stumpage costs prompt delays through October and January quarterly adjustments. CILA warns of potential shortages of loggers and truckers for January to spring needs, urging December work to avoid outside labor.
