The Public Lands During the Remainder of the 20th Century: Planning, Law, and Policy in the Federal Land Agencies (Summer Conference, June 8-10)

Conference organizers and/or speakers included University of Colorado School of Law professors Lawrence J. MacDonnell and Charles F. Wilkinson.

Public land management has undergone major changes in recent years in response to the greatly increased planning responsibilities mandated by Congress.

Public Lands During the Remainder of the 20th Century: Planning Law and Policy in the Federal Land Agencies looked at management and planning issues related to seven major resources in the public lands: timber, rangeland, minerals, wildlife, water, recreation, and preservation values. Charles F. Wilkinson, Professor of Law, University of Colorado, gave a luncheon talk on "Public Land Planning: Will …

Tb125: Fertilization Of Eastern White Pine (Pinus Strobus L.) In Maine Shows Economic Potential, Robert K. Shepard, Thomas B. Brann Feb 1987

Tb125: Fertilization Of Eastern White Pine (Pinus Strobus L.) In Maine Shows Economic Potential, Robert K. Shepard, Thomas B. Brann

Technical Bulletins

Plots in seven eastern white pine sawlog stands were treated with nitrogen at rates of 0, 56, 112, and 224 kg/ha. After four years the largest increase in basal area growth, 0.31 dm2 /tree, and volume growth, 13.0 m3 /ha, occurred in plots that received 112 kg/ha. It appears that an application rate of 112 kg/ha may provide a real return of 15% or more in some stands.


Research Reports No. 14, Stumpage Price Trends Of Pine Sawtimber And Pulpwood In East Texas, 1977-1986, J. David Lenhart, Kent T. Adair Feb 1987

Research Reports No. 14, Stumpage Price Trends Of Pine Sawtimber And Pulpwood In East Texas, 1977-1986, J. David Lenhart, Kent T. Adair

Informal Project Reports

Three different records of past stumpage price performance for Pine sawtimber and pulpwood are presented: Texas Forest Service 1983-86, Timber Mart South l 977-86 and Louisiana Departrnent of Agriculture 1955-86. The first two represent standing timber prices in East Texas, and the latter represents prices over a 32 year period in an adjacent state. In addition, a prognostication on future stumpage price trends is included.


Management And Pest Management Considerations On Droughty Soils: Four Year Results, David Kulhavy, Kenneth G. Watterson, James Kroll, James R. Meeker Jan 1987

Management And Pest Management Considerations On Droughty Soils: Four Year Results, David Kulhavy, Kenneth G. Watterson, James Kroll, James R. Meeker

Faculty Publications

Four year survival of pines on droughty (Typic Quartzips~mments) soils was best for longleaf pine and Terr-Sorb -treated loblolly pine. Pest considerations include town ants and Nantucket pine tip moths on loblolly pine. Untreated loblolly pine had reduced leader and total height growth anH increased tip moth infestations, compared to Terra-Sorb and clay-slurry treated loblolly pine. Soil texture averaged less than eight percent silt and clay combined in the treatment areas.


Structural Analysis Of The Pacific Northwest Lumber And Plywood Industries, James G. Strathman, Anthony M. Rufolo, M. Hossein Haeri Jan 1987

Structural Analysis Of The Pacific Northwest Lumber And Plywood Industries, James G. Strathman, Anthony M. Rufolo, M. Hossein Haeri

Center for Urban Studies Publications and Reports

The lumber and plywood industries in the Pacific Northwest were particularly affected by the 1979-1982 construction recession. A subsequent recovery in output has occurred, but employment levels have remained relatively depressed. The potential for a planned reduction in the amount of timber sold from the national forests in the region also exists, giving rise to some uncertainty about the future prospects for these industries. This paper identifies the major structural factors affecting the performance of lumber and plywood producers in the region. It then proceeds to develop and simulate a set of alternative scenarios covering the 1986-1990 period to examine …
