Sawmill Explosion Kills Two Workers in BC

摘要

A huge explosion and fire at the Lakeland Mills sawmill on the night of April 23 claimed the lives of two workers and injured 22 more. The cause of the explosion that destroyed the sawmill will be investigated, including the possibility that combustible wood dust accumulations fueled the blast. It was reminiscent of the Jan. 20 deadly sawmill explosion and fire at Babine Forest Products in Burns Lake, BC, that killed two workers and injured 22 others.
