Lynnterm and Seaboard ship lumber products around the world

LUMBER TERMINALS:

@ Lynnterm: The Lynnterm
forest products terminal, which is
owned by the Vancouver Port
Corp. (VPC) and operated by
Western Stevedoring Co., first
came to the North Vancouver
waterfront next to Dow Chemicals
in 1977 and has since gone
through a series of expansions.
While the lumber market is
depressed right now, Lynnterm
continues to experience growth. A
large part is due to a strong mar-
ket in woodpulp.

The terminal's current plans in-

clude expanding its existing berth
face towards the west and the
construction of a new warehouse
to hold forest products.

The warehouse, which will be
the third warchouse on the site,
will be 215,000 square feet (19,974
sq. m1) in area, bringing the total
area of all three forest product
warehouses to 550,000 square feet
(51,095 sq. m).
