Echo GNA Timber Sale Summary

This is a Transaction Evidence Report for a timber sale managed by the U.S. Forest Service, Region 02, Black Hills National Forest, South Dakota. The Echo GNA timber sale (Sale ID: 02030800142025) involves the harvest of ponderosa pine timber across 364 harvested acres within a total sale area of 1,315 acres. The sale includes two product categories: ponderosa pine (species code 122) measured in both Hundreds of Cubic Feet (CCF) and Thousands of Board Feet (MBF). For CCF measurement, the sale volume totals 955 CCF with 852 CCF in the 01-03 product unit and 103 CCF in the 03-09 product unit. For MBF measurement, the total volume is 446 MBF with 392 MBF in the 01-01 product unit and 54 MBF in the 03-01 product unit. The document indicates this is a planned, competitive forest sale with no SBA set-asides. The sale is designated as a deficit sale with an increased amount of $10,576.12.

The advertised rates for CCF products are $0.25 per unit across both product categories, while MBF products are advertised at $0.54 and $0.48 per unit respectively. The appraisal reflects significant adjustments across multiple cost categories including skid-yard costs, haul costs, road maintenance, slash disposal, and temporary road construction, resulting in negative predicted bids. The timber is to be hauled 69 miles to Sturgis with a round trip mileage of 295 miles. No bids are currently recorded in the bidders' summary sections, indicating the sale has been advertised but not yet awarded. The document is dated September 12, 2025, and reflects the comprehensive appraisal analysis used to establish the timber sale's advertised rates and financial projections.
