Understanding Timelines and Sawlog Shelf Sample Clauses

Understanding Timelines and Sawlog Shelf life Shelf-life under one definition is “the length of time before moisture content, wood density and fibre quality deteriorate to a point at which primary or secondary processing is uneconomic”10. Others include the economic impact of world lumber markets and our local lumber manufacturers’ ability to market the attacked wood. If they can continue to manufacture and sell MPB killed Pl, then the shelf-life can be extended; if they can’t, then the shelf-life will be shorter. On the Community Forest, the MPB epidemic started in 2003, peaked in 2005 and was effectively over by 2008. Today, we are 13 years into biological shelf-life on the earliest attack, 11 years for the peak attack and 8 years for the last part of the attack. There were many shelf-life studies and projections undertaken in the early years of the MPB epidemic, but none are known that tracked the projections with actual results. Therefore, 13 years after the attack, we are still struggling to understand shelf-life and how long the wood will be suitable for lumber, pulp and biomass. Figure 3 shows a commonly held view of shelf-life which is based upon the harvesting of dead Pl over the last 10 years. It closely tracks anodal information from the Community Forest’s staff and others in the business. These projections are very sensitive to changes in the marketplace.
