NatScale iconNational Scale Expansion Program (NatScale)

The National Scale Expansion Program (NatScale) produces total scaled volumes for timber sale contracts by monthly and quarterly periods for transmission to the Forest Service's Timber Sale Accounting (TSA) system for billing. NatScale calculates volume expansions for conventional scaling, 3P scaling, and weight scaling. It can handle both flat rate and escalated rate sales.
