About this file
This is a Forestry Report Data document prepared for the Frances J Palk property in Kentucky, detailing timber inventory metrics for a salvage timber sale opportunity (RFB01082026). The report documents stand composition across 10 sample plots using a Basal Area Factor of 10 and Doyle scale measurement with a form class of 78. The total merchantable volume averages 3,445 board feet per acre, with a proposed harvest volume of 338 board feet per acre, leaving 3,107 board feet per acre standing. The stand contains 76.6 trees per acre with an average diameter at breast height of 13.1 inches and total basal area of 72 square feet per acre. The cutting plan targets 3.3 trees per acre while retaining 73.3 trees per acre.
The stand composition is dominated by hardwoods, with White Oak representing 31.1% of stems, Red Oak at 26.0%, and Hickory at 25.2% of total trees per acre. Sawtimber-sized trees (12 inches and larger) comprise 78.3% of the stand, with the majority in the Small Sawtimber category (12-17.9 inches). By volume, Red Oak is the most significant species at 37.5% of total volume (1,291 board feet per acre), followed by White Oak at 27.6% (950 board feet per acre) and Hickory at 20.9% (718 board feet per acre). The proposed harvest removes 338 board feet per acre, predominantly small and medium sawtimber, while preserving the larger diameter trees and pole timber components for future forest management.
