1964 stock footage. New construction at St. Regis Paper Co. St. Regis saw a major expansion and modernization project go into effect in 1964 with the building of a new stud mill, veneer mill, and new 15-acre dry-land log-handling yard. 35 acres of new land were created on the harbor for the new facilities when a saltwater log pond was filled in. Two giant stackers would classify and handle the logs received by truck, rail and water, accumulating an inventory in preparation for the stud and veneer mills. Both mills were expected to be in operation by April, 1965. (1964 St. Regis Annual Report, p. 20)
