Subject: Notification of Operations - Red pine thinning (Jackson Lake)
 
Activities are set to resume in the red pine commercial thinning area by Jackson Lake beginning Monday, July 14th.
 
The work is being done by Armand Gagnon and his son (contractors for Gervais Forest Products).
 
They will be building a bit of road to access the harvest area.
 
Hauling is expected to start a week later (around July 21st), with one truck hauling between 2 - 3 loads per day.
 
The thinning operation will continue into September.
 
I'd appreciate it if you would pass on this information to the membership. I have also sent notice to the KLCA.
 
If you have any questions or concerns, please do give me a call. Alternately, you could also contact Patrick Bazinet (929-1677 cell). He will be VFM's on-site representative.
