Exhibit 1 - PDF Sale Area Map.pdf

This is an Exhibit file containing a sale area map for the Newnans Lake Timber Sale managed by the Governing Board of the St. Johns River Water Management District in Florida. The timber sale encompasses approximately 135.8 acres located within the Newnans Lake Conservation Area in Alachua County, east of Gainesville, specifically in Section 15; Township 9 South; Range 21 East. The sale area consists of two distinct timber management zones: a marked area of 36.5 acres of mature longleaf pine with harvest trees identified by blue paint at eye level, and a logger-select thinning area of 99.3 acres of planted longleaf pine established in 2007. The thinning prescription for the logger-select area requires removal of every third row for access, followed by selective thinning within leave rows to achieve an average target density of 150 to 200 trees per acre, with priority given to harvesting diseased, defective, and suppressed trees before intermediate and co-dominant trees, while dominant trees are to be preserved.

The District estimates the timber volume conveyed in this agreement to be approximately 3,000 tons of pine pulpwood and better, though no guarantee of volume presence is provided. The sale is conducted on a per-ton basis, with bids requested from qualified timber harvesters. Sale boundaries are clearly defined by roads, firebreaks, and obvious changes in timber type as indicated on the provided maps. The specific file referenced, Exhibit 1 - PDF Sale Area Map, contains the cartographic representation of the sale boundaries and operational areas necessary for bidders to understand the geographic scope and layout of the timber harvest operation.
