Introduction........ Yul~wood Product ion .

Znt roduc t ion

This annual r e p o r t is based on a canvass of a l l p u l p m i l l s i n t h e Northeast t h a t use wood a s a b a s i c raw material t o make pulp f o r t h e p roduc t ion of paper , i n s u l a t i o n board, and hardboard products . Cross-boundary shipments a r e t r a c e d by exchanging in format ion w i t h neighboring f o r e s t experiment s t a t i o n s t h a t conduct similar canvasses , and by canvassing ad jacen t Canadian mills.

The s t a t i s t i c s f o r product ion a r e based on m i l l r e c e i p t s yf roundwood and manufacturing p l a n t res idues . These r e c e i p t s a r e s u b j e c t t o year-to-year f l u c t u a t i o n s i n wood inventory . Data from t h e American Pulpwood Assoc ia t ion show inventory l e v e l s f o r t h e Nor t h e a s t r i s i n g on ly s l i g h t l y i n 1982. M i l l r e c e i p t s of pulpwood from roundwood a r e repor ted by county where i t was harvested. However, pulpwood from p l a n t r e s i d u e can be t r a c e d on ly t o t h e s t a t e where t h e r e s i d u e s were produced. Some of t h e logs from which t h e r e s i d u e s came probably were harves ted i n s t a t e s o t h e r than t h e one i n which they were processed.

Wood not r e p o r t e d i n s tandard cords on pulpwood product ion q u e s t i o n n a i r e s is converted t o such. Conversion f a c t o r s f o r a s p e c i f i c m i l l , i f a v a i l a b l e , a r e used. Otherwise, g e n e r a l conversion f a c t o r s f o r t h e Northeast are used.

Pul~wood Product ion

I n 1982, 6,329,700 cords of pulpwood roundwood were harves ted from t h e f o r e s t s of t h e 14 Northeastern S t a t e s (Connect icut , Delaware, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachuset ts , New Hampshire, New J e r s e y , New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode I s l a n d , Vermont, and West V i r g i n i a ) . Th is was 237,500 cords more t h a n was harves ted i n 1981 and represen ted a new h igh f o r roundwood product ion. I n a d d i t i o n , 2,122,500 cords of chipped sawmill s l a b s , edg ings , and o t h e r manufacturing r e s i d u e s were used f o r t h e product ion of pulp. T o t a l pulpwood produc t ion , t h e r e f o r e , was 8,452,200 cords. This is 155,400 cords ( 2 p e r c e n t ) more than 1981's p roduc t ion , making 1982's t o t a l product ion j u s t 29,300 cords shy of rhe record h igh set f o r t h e Nor theas t i n 1980 (Fig. 1)

I n 1982, t h e q u a n t i t y of wood c h i p s from manufacturing r e s i d u e t h a t went i n t o t h e product ion of woodpulp was down 82,100 cords from 1981. This was t h e t h i r d consecu t ive y e a r t o show a drop i n r e s i d u e use. This decrease was a r e s u l t of t h e downturn i n t h e lumber i n d u s t r y , caus ing l e s s r e s i d u e s t o be a v a i l a b l e f o r pulp ch ips , Also, o t h e r uses f o r t h e s e r e s i d u e s have been i n c r e a s i n g , such as f u e l f o r wood-fired b o i l e r s .

M i l l s made up f o r t h i s drop by us ing more roundwood, A s a percentage of t h e t o t a l raw m a t e r i a l f o r pu lp , t h e r e s i d u e s have dropped from a h igh of almost 30 percen t i n 1979 t o 25 percen t i n 1982,

Kentucky, West V i r g i n i a , and New Hampshire were t h e only major pulpwood producing s t a t e s w i t h s i g n i f i c a n t pulpwood produc t ion changes s i n c e 1981. They had i n c r e a s e s of 10, 17, and 27 p e r c e n t , r e s p e c t i v e l y , These t h r e e s t a t e s produced 211,600 cords more than i n 1981. Maine had t h e l a r g e s t product ion drop, 43.4 thousand cords l e s s than i n 1981; however, t h i s represen ted a d e c l i n e of only 1 percent . Other s t a t e s showed on ly smal l changes; s i x showed i n c r e a s e s and t h r e e showed d e c l i n e s .

Despi te g e n e r a l l y poor economic c o n d i t i o n s i n r e c e n t y e a r s , t h e product ion of pulpwood i n t h e Nor theas t h a s been h igh and very s t a b l e . Since 1978, g r e a t e r q u a n t i t i e s of pulpwood have been produced i n t h e Northeast than a t any o t h e r time. During t h i s 5-year per iod t h e r e has not been more t h a n a 4-percent annual change i n product ion between consecu t ive y e a r s , wi th o v e r a l l product ion s lowly i n c r e a s i n g . It is i n t e r e s t i n g t o no te t h a t t h e r e c e s s i o n of 1975 had a d r a m a t i c e f f e c t on Northeast pulpwood produc t ion , whi le t h e 1982 r e c e s s i o n had no e f f e c t on t h e t o t a l product ion. One reason f o r t h i s may be t h a t t h e 1982 r e c e s s i o n was no t a s broad based a s t h e r e c e s s i o n i n 1975, and t h a t t h e buyers of Northeast paper products were not a f f e c t e d t o t h e same e x t e n t .

Pulpwood Rece ip t s

During 1982, 8.95 m i l l i o n cords of pulpwood were rece ived by pu lpmi l l s i n t h e Northeast . This was a c o n t i n u a t i o n of t h e h igh l e v e l s of consumption i n r e c e n t y e a r s . Since 1979, r e c e i p t s have been s t e a d y , wi th approximately 9 m i l l i o n cords consumed each year . I n 1982, t h e Northeast pu lpmi l l s rece ived 1/ 2 m i l l i o n cords more pulpwood than t h e r e g i o n produced (F ig , 2). One m i l l i o n cords were shipped i n t o t h e reg ion and 1/2 m i l l i o n cords were shipped ou t . The m a j o r i t y of t h e imported wood was rece ived by m i l l s i n Kentucky, Maine, and Maryland. These s t a t e s have mills on t h e border of t h e reg ion and draw wood from neighboring s t a t e s and prov inces o u t s i d e t h e region. The m a j o r i t y of t h e expor ted wood went t o mills i n V i r g i n i a and Canada. I n 1982, Canada shipped 289,600 cords of pulpwood t o mills i n t h e Northeast whi le Canadian mills rece ived 133,800 cords from s t a t e s i n t h e Northeast .

Whole-Tree Chips

The h a r v e s t i n g of pulpwood has become more mechanized i n recen t years a s the c o s t s of t r a d i t i o n a l logging methods have increased . Some evidence of t h i s can be seen by t h e i n c r e a s i n g u s e of whole-tree ch ip h a r v e s t e r s i n t h e woods. The u s e of t h e s e machines has i n many c a s e s doubled wood y i e l d s per a c r e over t r a d i t i o n a l methods and i n c r e a s e d produc t ion per man-hour. The r e c e n t increased u s e of wood f o r energy has boosted whole-tree chipping and has l e d some mills t o i n t e g r a t e t h e handling of whole-tree c h i p s f o r f u e l and pulpwood. Chips a r e put through a c l a s s i f y i n g system w i t h high-grade c h i p s go ing i n t o pulp and low-grade m a t e r i a l going t o f u e l .

During 1982, t h e product ion of whole-tree c h i p s f o r pulp reached a new high (791,100-cord e q u i v a l e n t s ) . Maine showed s i g n i f i c a n t p roduc t ion of whole-tree c h i p s f o r pulp f o r the f i r s t t ime and now l e a d s t h e Northeast i n product ion of whole-tree chips. I n p a s t y e a r s , Maine r e p o r t e d l a r g e amounts of whole-tree c h i p s used on ly f o r f u e l and limbed t ree - leng th m a t e r i a l chipped f o r pulpwood. Ohio was second i n product ion and maintained i t s h igh l e v e l of consumption w i t h whole-tree ch ips making up 82 percent of roundwood r e c e i p t s . I f r e c e n t t r e n d s i n h a r v e s t i n g cont inue , t h e p roduc t ion of whole-tree c h i p s can be expected t o con t inue t o increase .

Whole-tree c h i p produc t ion i n t h e Northeast from 1977-1982 was:
