A new giant sawmill project has been announced in the US: As tuscaloosanews.com reported, the Westervelt Company is preparing to build a new lumber mill in south Alabama, which is expected to create more than 100 jobs and produce 250 million board feet annually.

“The new facility is still in the planning phase, but its specific location and design should receive final approval from its board of directors soon”, a company press release says. The new facility will complement Westervelt’s existing lumber facility in Moundville, which the company called the second-largest southern yellow pine lumber production facility in the United States.
