About this file
This is a Timber Sale Prescription form from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Forest Resources Division, for a timber marking and cruising project in the Cadillac Management Unit. The project involves marking and cruising timber across three stands (17, 57, and 59) totaling approximately 65.4 acres in Sections 29, 30, and 32 of Township 24N, Range 10W. The work encompasses three distinct treatments: Stand 17 requires crown thinning to an average basal area (BA) of 120; Stand 57 requires a shelterwood cut removing aspen, balsam, and red maple while preserving 40-60 BA of white pine; and Stand 59 requires single tree selection thinning to an average of 80 BA with removal of all aspen. Contract work may begin immediately and must be completed by September 1, 2025. The project includes marking of paint lines (blue for exterior lines against private land, red for exterior lines against state land, and yellow for interior payment units), timber marking specifications for sawlogs and pulpwood with minimum diameter breast height requirements, and timber cruising across 66 cruise points using a BAF sampling design.
The cruising specifications require use of MobileMap software with cruise layout files provided by DNR, with specific BAF ranges (10, 15, 20) and sample tree ratios (pulpwood 1:10, sawlog 1:5) for each stand. Contractor deliverables include a list of personnel who marked or cruised each unit, a summary of paint usage in quarts, and all cruise and GPS data uploaded from MobileMap to InventoryManager. Key restrictions prohibit more than two markers per cruise unit without prior approval and require each marker to have an assigned area rather than strip assignments. Paint will be supplied by DNR, and contractor schedules must align with DNR availability during standard business hours. The local DNR contact is Andrew Krugh at the Manton Field Office, reachable at (906) 291-0124 or KrughA1@Michigan.gov.
