Pope & Talbot, Inc. Announces Large Mill and Lumber Project
San Francisco, August 1-To perpetuate production of lumber for hundreds of years to come, Pope & Talbot, fnc., pioneer San Francisco and Pacific Northwest lumber and shipping firm, today announced the acquisition of 32,000 acres of timber land near Oakridge, Oregon, and plans for the erection of a large sawmill with logging operations to be carried out in conformity with .U. S. Forest Service sustained yield plans. Announcement of the operations, which are expected to result in a harvest of approximately 50 million board feet of lumber a year, was made by Hillman Lueddemann, northwest manager of Pope & Talbot, fnc., and Fresident George A. Pope, Jr., San Francisco.
Under the sustained yield plan of operations only ripe timber will be harvested thus fostering new growth and reforestation at an equal pace with cutting
The area included in the acquisition has been known as the Penn Timber Company lands, and is situated near the city of Oakridge, on the main fork of the Willamette River on the western slope of the Cascade Mountains, 45 miles south and east of Eugene, Oregon.
Included in the Pope & Talbot, Inc. plans for developing the project are not only the erection of a sawmill at or near Oakridge, but a building and development plan for the torvn of Oakridge. With a present population of 650 people, Oakridge is expected to expand into a busy mill and lumber city of 2,500 population. This will call for the municipal authorities to enact zoning laws and install utilities suitable to a trebling of population. To carry out this project steps have already been initiated by Mayor Charles Croner, backed by the Oakridge city council. First phase in the plans for the city will be temporary housing, plans for which are being aided by Pope & Talbot, Inc., representatives; Howard Beauford, planning consultant for the Eugene-Springfield area of Oregon, and local authorities.
The erection of the new mill will begin as soon as a suitable site has been selected, and preliminary road and mill pond surveys completed, stated Mr. Lueddemann. The mill will be one of the largest in the Eugene area, with a capacity of 200,000 to 300,000 board feet of lumber per eight hour day.
The new operations will be carried out in close co-operation with the United States Forest Service. J. R. Bruckart, supervisor of the Willamette National Forest, recently told a meeting of the Oakridge City Council that, "I rate the new operation as one of the largest and best sustained yield projects yet proposed."
Mr. Lueddemann outlines the Pope & Talbot, fnc., approach to the project as follows:
"The new operations recognize the national need for building material, and the need for conservation in logging operations. We are not moving in to hoe down all the trees in sight. This operation is planned to utilize the timber r,'r'hich is ripe and to protect the growing timber."
Pope & Talbot, fnc., has been active in lumbeling and shipping on the Pacific Coast since 1849. Previous to that the family operated from East Machias, Maine, serving the Atlantic trade. It has large lumber mills at Port Gamble, Washington, and at St. Helens, Oregon, which will be maintained. Of;fices are located in sixteen United States cities with headquarters in San Francisco.
