2 ABSTRACT Warren, Debra D Production, prices, employment, and trade in Northwest forest industries, third quarter Resour. Bull. PNW-RB-190. Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 112 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 prices of stumpage sold by public agencies; and other related items. Keywords: Forestry business economics, lumber prices, plywood prices, timber volume, stumpage prices, employment (forest products industries), 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 prices; timber harvest; employment in forest products industries; international trade in logs, pulpwood, chips, lumber, and plywood; log prices in the Pacific Northwest; volume and average prices 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; California 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 price (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 District includes all Oregon ports and Longview and Vancouver, Washington. Anchorage Customs District is the State of Alaska. San Francisco Customs District 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 collection. 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 origins or destinations, and through time. AUTHOR DEBRA D.
