SAFETY DIRECTOR PRAISES

THE WESTERN CANADIAN LUMBER WORKER

TIMBER PRODUCTS PLANT

By ANDY SMITH
Regional Safety Director

I recently had the oppor-
tunity of touring the Mill and
Timber Products operation at
8818 Greenall, Burnaby. This
is an operation employing 30
to 40 men, and produces vari-
ous types of cedar siding. I
was particularly impressed
with the cleanliness of the
operation; the houskeeping
within the plant itself was ex-
tremely good, and while the

stock in the outside areas was
rather crowded, it was well
and safely stacked.

This operation has an en-
viable safety record that could
be a goal to strive for in simi-
lar operations.

The lunch room was clean
and well appointed, including
sinks and a refrigerator.
Photographs appearing on
this page will give a general
idea of the operation.

“Returns on the power line
investment will be immediate-
ly available to B.C. Hydro
from the industrial, commer-
cial and home users in the
Tahsis area.

“Tt is established that road
construction costs and the
availability of access roads to
merchantable timber have a
direct bearing on stumpage
rates and returns to the Pro-
vincial Treasury. Therefore,
an investment in an access
road has the same prospect of
return as in the case of the
power line installation by rea-
son of the improved stumpage
payments.

“Tt is the opinion of this or-
ganization, having in mind the
needs of the residents and in-
dustry in a long established
and expanding area, that your
attention as Premier should
be directed to the two vital
and pressing problems afore-
mentioned.”
