The Wallowa-Whitman National Forest is slated to award contracts for a pair of timber sales, large by the standards of the past couple of decades, for a total of $602,000.
The Wallowa-Whitman announced in a press release that Boise Cascade Wood Products is the apparent high bidder for the Dean timber sale near Phillips Reservoir. It’s by far the larger of the pair, including an estimated 13.6 million board-feet of timber from 2,435 acres.
Iron Triangle LLC of John Day is the apparent high bidder for the Dutch timber sale, in the Wolf Creek area northwest of North Powder. The Dutch sale includes an estimated 5.1 million board-feet of timber from 575 acres.
