Summary

Weyerhaeuser pleads guilty in a deadly lumber mill accident, agreeing it failed to protect workers — a pike pole blast killed one employee in November 2023. The company faces a $355,000 penalty, all going to Northwestern Polytechnic to fund a new safety training program for new hires in high-risk industries. They have 30 days to appeal.
