In the case of Skeena Sawmills Ltd. v. Terrace Timber Ltd., dated April 11, 2023, Skeena Sawmills sought a declaration that the charges and liens registered by Terrace Timber were invalid, while Terrace argued for their validity. Under their timber harvesting contract, disputes over logging rates arose, leading to the involvement of TimberTrack Inc. Skeena made provisional rate payments, and TimberTrack Inc. provided a preliminary rate determination report. The court determined the charges and liens to be invalid under the FSPPA and ordered their discharge. Skeena, as the successful party, was awarded costs at Scale B for the proceeding.
