Boats on the Lake! -- Hollund's Project Team Makes Return Visit to
Bayano Reservoir to Observe On-Site Logistics
BLAINE, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 28, 2014) - Hollund
Industrial Marine, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HIMR) ("Hollund"), an
underwater forest management company, announced today that the
project team officially arrived at Bayano Reservoir on Tuesday
afternoon to meet its Senior Project Manager and view the logistics
operations management.
"We're very impressed by what our senior partner and his team have
accomplished over the past few months," stated Sheldon Romain, Vice
President of Hollund. "It is nothing short of remarkable,
given the challenging work conditions and remote location. We
look forward to sharing our documentary of this unique project, as
it continues to progress well."
Hollund's project team -- which includes, Vice President Sheldon
Romain and various industry consultants, including North Cal Wood
Products -- surveyed the 1000+ hectare concession, where they were
able to identify such high value tropical wood species as Espave,
Cumaru (Teak), and Cocobolo. Later, the team arrived at the
primary log takeout and landing site where they met additional
members of the logistics crew. Finally, the team traversed the 3
kilometer-long access road, which has been widened and resurfaced
to accommodate for loaders and other heavy equipment. During their
visit, Hollund and its senior partner also discussed team
strategies for improving efficiencies in the targeting and
identification of marketable wood species needed to fulfill pending
purchase orders.
Mr. Romain concluded, "While there is still much work to be done,
including a full roll-out of operations, we are encouraged by the
high spirits of the logistics team and their strong desire to move
this project into the next phase."
The Company's senior partner plans to manage the diver based
operations during the initial period until the arrival of a
state-of-the-art robotic timber harvester; capable of harvesting up
to 100 trees per day. Based on discussions with the senior
partner, management expects the timber crews to be able to
initially recover as many as eight trees per day or more from the
reservoir. However, the plan is to scale the logging operations
over the first year in order to meet what Hollund anticipates will
be growing demand for its superior- quality, underwater harvested
wood products.
