Korbel mill for sale

[Gologit]

Another one bites the dust. If Sierra Pacific buys the mill it will be their tenth mill in California alone. I think they have three in Washington.
Couple that with almost two million acres of timber in California and it's easy to see who's the big frog in a little puddle.

i hate to see only one company in control.........it happened here with pine mills.......price dropped and ain't ever coming back up.

Mills in WA are for sale too. One in Longview, Mill 3 in Shelton and Mill 5 in Dayton. CBOP otherwise known as Commencement Bay operations (Tacoma) is for sale too. Package deal or singles. Lots of folks hoping Sierra doesn't buy any of em. Most likely Mill 3 and 5 will be bought as a package, large and small log mills respectively. I see them going after CBOP or the Longview mill or both; then they'd have the 5 corridor covered really well. Hope Interfor buys some of em. Especially 3 and 5, then they would have the peninsula covered really well. Only Problem is 3 and 5 come with a railroad... could make it a hard sale.

If there's any timber land for sale with the mills you can bet SPI will be interested. Otherwise they might buy a small mill, shut it down, and just gut it to eliminate some competition.

No land just mills.

Think alta/tmi/tubafor... just got bought or maybe they bought welco, my usual formark just changed hands, the little cottonwood mill just got done being sold, that leave 2 mills in everrett that haven't sold this year.

SPI is in the mix, just the mill or more, SPI has a mill just down the road in Arcata. Home territory for SPI.

I'm happy to see anybody buy 'em so long as they stay open.

Funny thing, that. Weyco has long had Loblolly operations and a research site in Hot Springs AR, and I remember being amused to find one of their box plants in VA Beach when I lived there.
