Coastal ldles Hardwood Mills

Coastal Lumber Co., Charlottesville, Va., closed its offices and eight sawmills Aug. 12, a move that president and c.e.o. Victor Barringer hopes is "only temporary."

The closures came after the company's bank would not support its reorganization plan unless Barringer made "concessions," which he would not agree to. Coastal is seeking alternative financing to reopen and be financially stronger, but still provide "excellent, quality" service to customers.

The company has been in business since 1937, expanding from a single hardwood mill to become the largest hardwood lumber manufacturer east of the Mississippi, employing nearly 900 at plants in North and South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.
