West Fraser says the charge is the result of a protracted downcycle that has caused its management to recalibrate certain assumptions. 

The company says some of the changes to the assumptions include lower demand and pricing for wood chip residuals, as well as the length and severity of the downturn. 

In December of last year, West Fraser announced plans to indefinitely curtail work at its northern Alberta mill in a move that was expected to impact 190 employees. 

At the time, West Fraser attributed the move to weakening demand for oriented strand board, which is used in residential construction, repair and remodelling and industrial applications.
