NEW BERN, North Carolina — Officials with the Weyerhaeuser sawmill in New Bern have announced they are halting operations indefinitely. An official with Weyerhaeuser confirmed the news Thursday. …”We can confirm that in response to a combination of site-specific and market-related factors, we are indefinitely curtailing operations at our sawmill in New Bern, North Carolina. …We conducted a thorough analysis to evaluate the mill’s long-term viability and competitiveness. …Our New Bern sawmill has a workforce of approximately 75 employees, and we are working to minimize the impact of the curtailment by providing opportunities at other Weyerhaeuser operations for certain employees and transition resources for those who are eligible. We will continue to monitor market conditions to determine whether there’s an opportunity to resume operations in the future.”
