Operations at Newfoundland and Labrador’s largest sawmill are suspended following a late-October fire at its facility in Bloomfield. The N.L. Forestry Industry Association said Sexton Lumber’s interruption will affect a “significant network” of industry members throughout the province.  “Sexton Lumber recognizes the uncertainty this interruption creates for its employees, contractors, customers, agricultural partners, suppliers, and the broader business community,” the statement says. The fire, which burned the night of Oct. 29, caused significant smoke damage to the facility, according to the industry association. Assessments are underway while harvesting, log purchasing and major operations are on hold. …Sexton Lumber, owned by Kevin Sexton, has the capacity to produce about 65 million board feet per year, said the statement. It also supplies its products to 26 farms across N.L. A timeline for operations to get back on track has not yet been determined.
