Whitecourt's Location
Economic Base
The main contributing industries to Whitecourt’s thriving economy are forestry, oil and gas, and tourism. Other natural resources available locally are: clay, sand, gravel, sulphur, fresh water, and coal.
FORESTRY INDUSTRY
Three major forest companies contribute to the economic base of the community: Millar Western Forest Products, Alberta Newsprint Company, and Blue Ridge Lumber.
The companies operate modern, state-of-the art production facilities that complement up-to-date Woodlands Management Programs. The companies recognize that the health of the forest is of primary importance for long-term business goals, and therefore manage the resources with practices that are among the best in Canada. The mills are as efficient as possible and exceed established environmental standards.
Millar Western Forest Products
Millar Western expanded into the pulp industry with the construction of a $200 million Bleached Chemi-Thermo-Mechanical Pulp (BCTMP) Mill in Whitecourt in 1988. This BCTMP Mill was the first operation in North America and the second in the world to achieve ISO 14001 Environmental Management Certification.
Millar Western, in partnership with Marmac Engineering, constructed a 21-megawatt electrical generating plant. The remaining residual wood by-products from its mill are used to generate power to the local power station. This ensures that all timber resources are utilized. The power plant is located across the Athabasca River from Whitecourt, and is operated by Whitecourt Power which delivers the electricity to FortisAlberta. The combustion process utilizes very intense heat, resulting in emission levels well below those set by Alberta Environment.
Millar Western’s sawmill began production in June 2001. The mill is located at the confluence of the Athabasca and McLeod Rivers, next to the BCTMP mill. This $40 million mill is a single-line sawmill that annually produces in excess of 200 million foot board measure of kiln-dried lumber, which is enough lumber to build 11,000 average-sized single-family dwellings.
Alberta Newsprint Company
Shortly after the completion of the BCTMP Mill, Alberta’s first newsprint mill was built north of town. This $400 million plant began production in August 1990, with the capacity of producing 747 tonnes per day, and 269,000 metric tonnes per year.
Blue Ridge Lumber
Blue Ridge Lumber built a Medium Density Fibreboard (MDF) Mill at a cost of $56 million in 1985, to complements its lumber mill that began operations in 1975. The MDF mill produces a high quality manufactured board for furniture and other products. MDF product has gained an international reputation as a high quality product that is marketed throughout North America. In 1994, the MDF mill underwent a $40 million expansion.
OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY
Ongoing exploration and field operations in the surrounding area drive growth in Whitecourt. Whitecourt acts as a service centre to the oil and gas industries. Numerous oil and gas companies, service and supply establishments, and oilfield consultants have offices located in the Whitecourt area.
Search the Whitecourt Business Directory for information on service and supply companies in the oil and gas industry.
TOURISM INDUSTRY
Tourism is continuing to develop – with interest and awareness growing for “the Snowmobile Capital of Alberta” from a number of tourism market segments, particularly the winter/outdoor recreation tourist market.

WHITECOURT WATER TREATMENT PLANT
The Town of Whitecourt has now completed the final upgrades at the Water Treatment Plant. Stage 1 upgrades included the addition of a pressure membrane micro-filtration system that removes all giardia and cryptosporidium from the water. This modern technology is new to Alberta, but has been used for a number of years throughout North America. The Town of Whitecourt is leading the way for this quality of water treatment in Alberta.
The Membrane System was commissioned in January 2005, within the footprint of the existing Water Treatment Plant and has allowed the filtration capacity to be tripled without doubling the size of the existing plant.
In conjunction with the membranes baffling the existing one million gallon reservoir and the construction of a new distributino pump house significantly improved the plants' chlorine contract time.
In March 2009, the town commissioned Stage II of the upgrade, which utilized the old filter basins to provide three-stage flocculation upstream of the clarifier. The clarifier was also modified and plate packs were installed to further enhance settling thus providing triple the capacity.
With the completion of Stage II and I, the plant is capable of treating 18 ML/day, which is predicted to meet the town's potable water supply requirements beyond 2030.
Based on recent incidents within parts of Canada and North America, Alberta Environment is requiring upgrades to the Canadian drinking water standards upon renewal of Municipalities Operating Approval. The new Membrane System meets and exceeds these requirements.
The Raw Water Intake, built in 1988, draws water from the McLeod River and supplies it to the Water Treatment Plant and Millar Western Pulp Mill. The Town of Whitecourt draws 40 to 50 litres of water per second and the pulp mill draws approximately 400 litres per second.
