Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 116 p. Provides current information on lumber and plywood production and prices; employment in the forest industries: international trade in logs, lumber, and plywood; volume and average pdces of stumpage sold by public agencies; and other related items. Keywords: Forestry business economics, lumber pdces, plywood prices, timber volume, stumpage pdces, employment (forest products industdes), marketing (forest products), imports and exports (forest products). PREFACE This report presents current information on the timber situation in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Idaho, and British Columbia, including data on lumber and plywood production and pdces; timber harvest; employment in forest products industdes; international trade in logs, pulpwood, chips, lumber, and plywood; log prices in the Pacific Northwest; volume and average pdces of stumpage sold by public agencies; and other related items. Cooperation in supplying data has been received from the following sources: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Forest Inventory and Economics Research Staff in Washington, DC; Washington State Department of Natural Resources and Employment Security Department: Oregon State Department of Forestry and Department of Employment; Califomla State Department of Employment and Department of Conservation; Montana State Forester and State Employment Service; Idaho State Department of Public Lands and Department of Employment; Alaska State Department of Labor and Department of Natural Resources of the Division of Lands: U.S. Department of Commerce; U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management and Bureau of Indian Affairs; British Columbia Department of Industrial Development, Trade, and Commerce: and a number of private industry associations, firms, and individuals. The valuation definition used in the export statistics is the value at the seaport or border port of exportation. It is based on the selling pdce (or cost if not sold) and includes inland freight, insurance, and other charges to the port of exportation. Seattle Customs District includes all coastal and inland ports in the State of Washington, except Longview and Vancouver. Columbia-Snake Customs Distdct includes all Oregon ports and Longview and Vancouver, Washington. Anchorage Customs District is the State of Alaska. San Francisco Customs Distdct includes Monterey and all ports north of Monterey, California. The statistical data are from secondary sources and are brought together to make such information more readily available. Sources are indicated for each table and can be contacted directly for means used in data coltection. Readers are cautioned that unit values should not be interpreted as accurate indicators of prices. Unit values for individual trade flows, especially those involving small volumes, frequently vary widely within a year, across odgins or destinations, and through time. AUTHOR DEBRA D.

11 t Western Lumber Production and Prices Softwood lumber production decreases A total of 19.7 billion board feet of softwood lumber was produced in the Western United States in 1991, down 7.3 percent from 1990 (table 1). Total softwood lumber production in the second quarter of 1992 was down 9.0 percent from the first quarter and down 12.7 percent from the second quarter of Lumber prices increase slightly Average wholesale prices rose slightly in 1991 for selected lumber products (table 7). Compared with first quarter 1992 average values, second quarter 1992 changes ranged from a 22.3-percent drop for no. 3 ponderosa pine boards, to a 4.8-percent increase for fir-larch lumber. Plywood Production and Prices Plywood production increases United States softwood struotural panel board production in 1991, at 24,539 million square feet (3/8-inch basis), decreased 11.6 percent from Production was up in the second quarter of percent from first quarter 1992 and 2.3 percent from second quarter 1991 (table 1). Plywood prices drop in second quarter of 1992 Wholesale prices of selected plywood products remained fairly stable from 1990 to After first quarter 1992 average prices increased dramatically (table 8), second quarter showed a decline. Employment in Forest Products Industries Employment numbers fall in 1991, rise in 1992 The number of persons employed in the lumber and wood products industries decreased in 1991 in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, and Idaho (tables 20, 21, and 22). Second quarter 1992 numbers indicated a slight increase in most of these States. Log, Pulp, and Chip Exports Washington and Oregon log exports decrease in 1991 Log exports from Washington and Oregon ports totaled 2,542.4 million board feet in 1991, as compared to 3,008.4 million board feet in For the second quarter of 1992, Washington Customs District exported million board feet of logs to all countries, and Oregon Customs District exported (table 23).

12 Average value of logs is $ Softwood log exports from Washington and Oregon ports averaged $ (per thousand board feet) in the second quarter of 1992, up $75.24 from the first quarter average of $ The values increased similarly for log exports going to Japan, Canada, and China, but remained fairly constant for exports to South Korea. Log exports decrease in California and Alaska San Francisco Customs District exported 29.1 percent fewer logs in 1991 than in The second quarter log export volume from northern California was 1.3 million board feet (table 26). The Anchorage Customs District exported 7.0 percent fewer logs in 1991 than in The second quarter 1992 volume exported from Alaska was million board feet (table 27). Pulp volumes fluctuate slightly The four western customs districts showed minor fluctuations in putp export volumes from 1990 to The Seattle Customs District had a decrease in the amount of dissolving grade pulp being exported (table 44). Average value of pulp exports mostly down Most customs districts indicated a decrease in the average values for both grades of pulp exports from 1990 to 1991 (table 45). The only increase in average value was seen in the dissolving grade out of the Seattle Customs District. Chip exports increase in three customs districts Only the Seattle Customs District had a decrease in the volume of chip exports from 1990 to Average values of chips increased slightly in all four customs districts (table 46). Lumber, Plywood, and Veneer Expods Volume of lumber exports falls, except in Oregon The lumber export figures showed dramatic drops for the Seattle, Columbia-Snake, and Anchorage Customs Districts from 1990 to 1991 (tables 47 and 52). The only increases in volume were found in California (tables 50 and 51). Second quarter 1992 lumber export volumes were lower than first quarter volumes for all western customs districts except the Columbia-Snake.

13 Average value of lumber higher In the Seattle and Columbia-Snake Customs Districts, the average value of lumber exports rose from $ (per thousand board feet) in 1990 to $ in 1991 (table 49). Alaska prices also increased (table 52), but prices in both northern and southern California decreased (tables 50 and 51). Second quarter 1992 prices showed an increase in all the customs districts. Plywood export numbers are up for Washington but down for Oregon The Seattle Customs District exported 27.9 percent more plywood in 1991 than in Plywood exports were down 16.0 percent for the same period in the Columbia-Snake Customs District (table 65). Veneer exports increase in 1991 Compared with 1990, veneer exports were up 29.5 percent in Oregon and Washington in 1991 (table 67). Timber Sold by Forest Service Regions Sold volume in Northern Region is up for 1992 The amount of timber sold in Montana and northern Idaho rose only 0.3 percent from 1990 to 1991 (table 68). The volume increased 87.4 percent from the first quarter to the second quarter of Sold volume rises this quarter in northern California In 1991, the volume of timber sold on public lands in northern California dropped 52.6 percent from the 1990 total (table 74). The volume increased 85.5 percent from the first quarter of 1992 to the second quarter. Sold volume in Washington and Oregon increases Oregon and Washington showed a decrease of 64.6 percent in the amount of timber sold on public lands from 1990 to 1991 (table 79). The second quarter 1992 volume was 23.3 percent higher than first quarter Alaska shows decrease The volume of timber sold on Alaska public lands decreased 22.1 percent in 1991, compared with total volume for 1990 (table 84). 2a
