How is the Mountain Pine Beetle epidemic in BC affecting West Fraser’s harvesting practices?
• West Fraser’s harvesting has focused on removing dead and dying trees to halt, where possible, the continued spread of the Mountain Pine Beetle infestation while harvesting timber that is still commercially viable. • In Alberta, we are working with industry and the provincial government to prevent the eastward spread of the Mountain Pine Beetle epidemic. At this time, we are continuing with swift and aggressive action on this front.
