CAMPBELL RIVER, BC — Plumes of smoke could be seen from the water in Campbell River on Friday afternoon as a building imploded on the property where the former Elk Falls Pulp Mill operated for decades in the city. A former mill worker says a demolition crew has been working to remove the old mill structures from the property piece-by-piece for the past few years. However, on Friday the demo crew took a different approach. Clearview Demolition Ltd. has been taking a multi-phased approach to the project which has consisted of both the demolition and removal of hazardous materials, according to the company’s website. Where a piece-by-piece removal could take up to half a year to complete, an explosive removal is completed in a matter of weeks.
