Questions to consider?
• Impact on forest operations and revenue?• Is certification a fad or is it here to stay?• What are the political implications of pursuing, or not pursuing FSC?• Does FSC help or harm the CFR’s image with our friends, alumni,
UW administration, and the general public?• Does FSC certification match with the mission of the both the
college and the CSF-PF?
I am sure you have other questions as well.

Take home message—we will cut most “1926” stands by 2025

Stand ages under FSC rules over the entire forest -5% below current revenue targets
2006 2056
Take home message—some “1926 stands” retained under FSC when we harvest $475,000/yr

Age Structures under FSC with 5% and 10% less income
FSC with $450,000/yr 2056FSC with $475,000/yr 2056
Take home message is that a small reduction in revenue greater retention

Introduction to New Material
• Bruce Lippke suggested we convert age structure maps to Johnson and O’Neil habitat maps– The Johnson and O’Neil classifications (through LMS) may
under predict canopy layering as we have a hard time growing even hemlock and red cedar until <35 trees/acre
• Visualizations of FSC treatments used– We maximized revenue on the FSC side– The CCA, CCB, CTA, and CTB represent the
maximum we could do under FSC
![Page 12: To FSC or not FSC? Some background information for Monday’s Meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062809/568159db550346895dc7287b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Silvicultural Treatments • FSC Commercial Thin Option A (CTA)--100 TPA
proportional• FSC Commercial Thin Option (CTB)--40% RD
proportional• FSC Clearcut Option A (CCA) [allowed if stand >65
year-old--reached culmination of MAI]– Leave 10% BA proportional, all >45” DBH trees
• FSC Clearcut Option B (CCB) – Required for stands yet to reach MAI– Leave 30% BA proportional, all >45” DBH trees
• SFI Clearcut CC--leave 5 TPA >10”, all under 6”, all >45” DBH trees)
Take Home—the following slides show the application each of these treatments and then visualizes the future stand

Discussion
• Advantages to FSC Certification– Green Building Standard– Benefits to some wildlife– Public Relations
• Advantages to Split Certification– CSF-PF Research Base– Possible Funding– Allows greater flexibility
