Oregon's forest products industry: 1985.

Abstract

P a c i f i c Northwest Research S t a t i o n. 90 p. T h i s report presents t h e findings of a 100-percent survey of t h e primary f o r e s t products industry in Oregon for 1985. The survey included t h e following sectors: lumber; veneer and plywood; pulp and board; shake and shingle; export; and p o s t , pole, and p i l i n g. Tables, presented by s e c t o r and f o r t h e industry as a whole, include characteristics of t h e industry, nature and flow of logs oonsumed, and d i s p o s i t i o n of m i l l residues. Keywords: Forest products industry, m i l l surveys, wood u t i l i z a t i o n , m i l l residues, Oregon.

Oregon's forest products industry: 1992.

“…This report provides much of this information through an indepth look at Oregon's forest products industry for 1992. Coupled with similar reports for 1968 (Manock and others 1970), 1972(Schuldt and Howard 1974), 1976 (Howard and Hiserote 1978), 1982 (Howard 1984), 1985 , and 1988 (Howard and Ward 1991), this information provides a basis for examining significant trends in industry characteristics and timber use.…”

“…The percentages indicate the log consumption included in the tables in appendix 2 as compared to the given log consumption plus estimated log consumption for those mills not included in the survey. The data were estimated by using information from the Directory of the Wood Products Industry (1994) and the 1988 survey (Howard and Ward 1991). There were at least 29 sawmills, 24 veneer and plywood mills, 1 pulp and board mill, 6 shake and shingle mills, 10 log export companies, and 4 post, pole, and piling operations that declined to participate in the survey.…”

Modeling carbon stores in Oregon and Washington forest products: 1900?1992

“…Changes in the use of logs over time was compiled from published harvest reports (Moravets, 1950;Gedney, 1956;Cowlin and Forster, 1965;Manock et al, 1970;Schuldt and Howard, 1974;Bergvall et al, 1975;Howard, 1984;Howard and Ward, 1988;Larsen, 1990Larsen, , 1992Howard and Ward, 1991). In years in which there were no reports, we used linear interpolation for estimating values.…”

“…Historical patterns of bark use were compiled from the literature (Corder et al, 1972;Schuldt and Howard, 1974;Bergvall et al, 1975;Howard and Hiserote, 1978;Howard, 1984;Howard andWard, 1988, 1991;Larsen, 1990Larsen, , 1992. Linear interpolation was used when data were missing.…”

“…Historical changes in saw-log processing efficiency (Hodgson, 1931;Corder et al, 1972;Lane et al, 1973a, Hartman et al, 1976Willits and Fahey, 1988;Briggs, 1993) and waste disposition (Hodgson, 1931;Gedney, 1956;Cowlin and Forster, 1965;Manock et al, 1970;Corder et al, 1972;Schuldt and Howard, 1974;Bergvall et al, 1975;Hartman et al, 1976;Howard and Hiserote, 1978;Howard, 1984;Howard andWard, 1988, 1991;Larsen, 1990Larsen, , 1992 were compiled from historical summaries of the forest-products sector. In years without reported data, we used linear interpolation for estimating values.…”
