Lumber layoffs hit Bonner County as mills scale back
Seasonal layoffs begin in the Idaho lumber industry with Louisiana-Pacific laying off about 60 workers and Pack River Lumber cutting back to prevent major job losses in the Sandpoint area. Moyie Springs mill near Bonners Ferry shut down last week, with plans to resume but operating on a reduced log intake. An Idaho delegation including Rep. Marion Davidson travels to Japan to expand demand for North Idaho lumber and push for uniform standards. Unemployment may reach 25 percent by late winter as families seek alternative income sources.
