About this file

This is a Payment Unit Summary form used for timber sale cruising and designation operations. The form serves as a standardized template for documenting forest inventory assessment, tree marking specifications, and merchantability standards for timber harvest planning.

The form captures critical sale information including sale name, location, stands, acreage measurements (RX and GPS), lead cruiser identification, and cruise dates. It establishes eight sample groups with corresponding tree count totals and designation methods: Aspen 5"+, Hardwood Pulp 5"-11", BF/Spruce 5"+, Pine Pulp 5"-8.9", Pine Saw 9"-17.9", Hardwood Saw 11"+, Jack Pine Saw 9"+, and Super Pine 18"+. The merchantability specifications define product standards by diameter at breast height (DBH), minimum piece length, diameter inside bark (DIB) top, and minimum net scale soundness percentages, with hardwood sawlogs requiring 11.0"+ DBH and 40% soundness, conifer sawlogs requiring 9.0"+ DBH and 40% soundness, and pulpwood products requiring 70% soundness. The form designates specific marking paint colors for different features (orange for boundary and protected areas, blue or yellow for DXSPP/CTM designations) and includes sections for documenting excluded areas, leave trees, operating restrictions, and management considerations related to boundary edits, protected areas, cultural resources, timber quality, wildlife, water, and access conditions.
