a Prices received for individual sales may vary significantly from the averages shown in this table because of differences in species mix, quality,
road costs, logging and processing costs, size and length of sale, number of bidders, and other related price determinants. Prices for stumpage
on National Forest lands are high bid value. Road costs and an allowance for sale-area betterment are included in the bid.
b Includes all of the Pacific Southwest Region and the portion of the Pacific Northwest Region in California.
c Does not include cull log sales or volume given away through free-use permits.
d The U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs land is now privately owned and no longer managed by the BIA. That category was dropped in 2001.
