Leroy Reitsma, President and Chief Operating Officer of Pinnacle Renewable Energy Group said: “This is a positive step forward and we want to thank the Agricultural Land Commission for their timely and detailed attention to the matter.”
“With the land use request approved, Tolko and Pinnacle can now continue the development process on the project,” said Ken Thorlakson, Co-Products Manager. “There is still a lot of work to be done before we construction can begin – including final zoning and environmental approval – but we have certainly cleared a big hurdle today.”
Tolko Industries Ltd. is a family-owned, private company that manufactures and markets specialty forest products to world markets. Their products include lumber, plywood, veneer, oriented strand board, unbleached kraft papers, and a growing number of wood products in its operations across Western Canada.
