One hundred years ago, Rudolph-McChesney Lumber built a modest sawmill on the banks of the Mattagami River in the newly established town of Timmins, Ont. The mill supplied timber to the nearby gold mines and growing community of miners.A century later and the sawmill - now owned by EACOM Timber and producing nearly 150 mmbf dimension lumber annually - remains an important employer in the northern Ontario town, as well as a model for sustainable forestry and local investment in the forest industry.
