Past Projects

Rio Tinto Alcan- Kitimat Modernization Project

Construction waste can accumulate very fast in a large scale project such as this. We managed this large scale wood waste by mobilizing four Air Curtain Burners and supporting equipment directly to the RTA site.  Waste wood material included pallets, crates and other vegetation debris.  Site preparation and sorting equipment were also used onsite to assist with burning and to ensure quality control.

Northwest Transmission Line- BC Hydro

Timber Baron had a very close working relationship with Nass Area Enterprises Ltd., a Nisga'a Lisims Government subsidiary, on BC Hydro's Northwest Transmission Line.  This line ran from Terrace approximately 344km's North to Bob Quinn Lake.  TBC was responsible for a 30km section of the Right of Way clearing which included all road upgrades, 20 km's of new road construction, all grubbing and clearing, and waste wood management.  Our Air Curtain Burners were used throughout the 7 km section which was in close proximity to the community of New Aiyansh and their municipal watershed.  TBC was also involved in  setting up and managing a log sort yard to handle 40,000m3 of merchantable timber from the Nisga'a section of the Northwest Transmission Line.  Click here to see some photos from our gallery.
