I guess if you consider the wood sector allocations, and tenured systems, "the timeline" runs according to a "product layout plan?" This, as a pie and a clock.

Recongnizing "fiber loss" after increased three year logging allocation ( what hasn't been taken out of the bush as a inferior product), why not focus on specialty wood products? Hard woods and such.

So now, the timeline extends into the future and to dismiss this aspect of chip supply slice turns the focus on the total forest production ability?

Let's say I am in the future.:)

So having satisfied "harvested tree rotations," we can rely on the work we have done with reforestation?

I'm back now.

It sounds a little like a time warp. We'll go back and kill our reforestation plan, and mark the young of the future? Take the young stuff out, as well before it's prime. That's of course we assume these planted trees will ever reach their prime?

I am concerned as forestry worker that if "reforrestation is not balanced with increased fiber usage" we will have attained a attitude in line with marking the future of the young of other species?

IN the "now" as a attitude change has oocuured, we now see beetle kill, as a inferior product, and have encouraged this resource, to a so so product stature. Remember fiber resoure is part of the proverbial pie.

As citizens and workers of this province, we want to make sure we get as much "bang from our buckers."

See even after three years, this resource can be converted to electricity. A cheap resource now producing premium dollars.

So beetle kill, has been undervalued?

You have to keep you eye on the ball at all times. This means keeping an eye on your government elected.

What ever happened to the 12 Ethonal mills that was talked about at $250 million a piece. I hear of them going up all over America, but none here in BC where we have all this beetle kill wood.

In Brazil they not only run their cars on renewable ethonal, but they also fly their planes with it.

You would think with the Kyoto excuse for pricing us out of heating our homes and transferring these dollars to Europeans we would have some kind of incentive to get going on this solution to our economy, and energy needs.

Forum your posts are a riddle and very hard to follow. I have no idea what kind of point you are trying to get across.

Sorry

"I have no idea what kind of point you are trying to get across."

No need to apologize. I will try and be clearer.

If you place as much value on "beetle kill" as you do any other resource, as a citizen and worker, you won't loose sight of the value companies assign these resources?

There still of value.

Do they sell these products cheaper then normal? Plywood that looks a little green? Fiber less of value, then normal fiber?

I don't think so. So lets not undervalue how we percieve beetle kill wood.

For the sake of being even clearer.

Thanks forum, you make a good point. I'll second you on that one.

Does anyone know if Ainsworth has 100% guaranteed that they are going to build these two plants? Or is this another case of "we will build it if the fed's, provincial and civic governments all bend over and give them cheap abundant timber and and tax breaks etc. before any construction ever starts? This is the old pipe dream prince george style. No one seems to want to do business here unless they can write their own rules. Don'y get me wrong, it would be great to see, but it goes under the ol "i'll believe it when i see it"
