More wood allocations announced
Two more companies in northwestern Ontario have accepted wood supply offers from the provincial government. Domtar will use its wood supply for full-time softwood pulp production at its mill in Dryden. Wagner Forest Management Limited has indicated that it will use its wood fiber to build a pellet manufacturing plant in Ignace. The business is expected to be up and running by October of 2013 and employ 20 new jobs. Minister Michael Gravelle made the announcement at the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association Conference.
