Timber in Utah Mountains Sparks Lumber Growth
Utah's lumber industry is expanding as higher timber production and new forest access boost logging. In 1955 Utah cut 73 million board feet, aiding local use and reducing import dependency while creating 427 to 1,096 jobs. The Utah Review forecasts sustained growth to 180 million board feet annually from three million acres of forest, with Forest Service oversight protecting watersheds and encouraging utilization of mature timber for a lasting industry.
