VANCOUVER ― West Fraser Timber Co. has announced it will curb production for about two weeks at its Chasm and 100 Mile House, B.C., sawmills. The company made the call in the face of weak lumber pricing, high log costs and a squeeze on timber supplies. In addition to curtailments already announced, SPF lumber production is expected to fall by some 20 million board feet.
