History
The WCLIB was originally established as the West Coast
Lumberman's Association when four small regional associations in the northwestern
part of the U.S.
joined forces in 1911. In 1923, the WCLA together with other regional
lumber associations, formed the first national committee for lumber
standardization under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Commerce. In
1941, the WCLA created a new division, The West Coast Bureau of Lumber
Grades and Inspection, to enhance the identity of the grading and
inspection services provided by the association. The name was later changed
to the West Coast Lumber Inspection Bureau. In 1968, the WCLIB was formally
incorporated as an independent organization when the promotional arm of the
WCLA was disbanded.
The WCLIB is currently
one of only seven organizations in the United States accredited by the
American Lumber Standard Committee to write and promulgate lumber grading
rules, and provide grade inspection and supervision services. The WCLIB is
also accredited by the ALSC to provide heat treating inspection and
supervisory services for manufacturers of wood pallets and crating.
The WCLIB provides
grade inspection and supervision services to member mills in the western
states, and throughout the continental U.S. and Europe. WCLIB has a total of
approximately 190 member lumber mills plus 180 pallet and heat treating
associate members. WCLIB is governed by a Board of Directors composed of
twenty persons elected from the membership.
