Mid Columbia Forest Products back on line after fire
Employees at Mid Columbia Forest Products have been back to work since July 11 after a fire shut the mill down on West Second Street on June 23. “We were down 12 (business) days,” said Owner Matt McCall today, July 19. “The vacuum system is up and going, but it still needs a few modifications.”

The fast work prevented the mill’s structure from becoming engulfed and will likely lead to the facility’s quick recovery, helping to maintain the employment of 15 locals.
