February 4, 2004: "Davidson Industries will close a Mapleton, Ore., sawmill that has been in operation for almost 50 years, according to an Associated Press story.
The Siuslaw River mill eight miles east of Florence will lay off about 60 people this spring.
The privately held company cited upgrades required by the state Department of Enviromental Quality that would have necessitated a substantial capital investment.
Davidson specializes in production of custom-cut Douglas Fir and Sitka Spruce lumber. The mill will operate until its log and lumber inventory is used up." (Portland Business Journal)
