Final Report
August 1, 2000

THEMATIC BACKGROUND :
LIST OF FIGURES

1. Forest Cover in Missouri with Potential Chip Mill Harvest Zones

2. Growth and removals with different levels of chip harvest from growing stock in source areas for Mill Spring and Scott City under alternative assumptions regarding private land availability and the presence of buffers on all roads and bodies of water

3. Industrial roundwood production in Missouri (1946-1997) and projections through 2030 based on the historical trend from 1980-1997, prior to the establishment of chip mills in Missouri

4. Annual growth and removals, and excess growth suitable for chips, within a 60-mile radius of the Mill Spring and Scott City mills, under anticipated volumes of chip utilization at two levels of wood availability from private lands (1990-2030)

5. Projected growth and harvest levels from growing stock within a 60-mile radius of Mill Spring facility under increasing volumes of chip utilization at two levels of wood availability from private lands (1990-2030)

6. Projected growth and harvest levels from growing stock within a 60-mile radius of Scott City mill under increasing volumes of chip utilization at two levels of wood availability from private lands (1990-2030)

7. Effect of site quality and age at first thinning on cumulative board foot yields (cut volume + residual stand volume) of central hardwood oak stands

8. Live trees and harvest levels in thinned and unthinned stands
