This report is a summary of timber resource statistics for an inventory of the 19

counties in western Washington: Clallam, Clark, Cowlitz, Grays Harbor, Island,

Jefferson, King, Kitsap, Lewis, Mason, Pacific, Pierce, San Juan, Skagit,

Skamania, Snohomish, Thurston, Wahkiakum, and Whatcom. The inventory in

2000 sampled all private and public lands except those administered by the National Forest System and those that were reserved from management for wood

products. Area information for parks and other reserves was obtained directly from

the organizations managing these areas. Statistical tables provide estimates of land

area, timber volume, growth, mortality, and harvest for individual survey units for

western Washington as a whole.

Keywords: Forest surveys, forest inventory, statistics (forest), timber resources,

resources (forest), western Washington.
Summary

Western Washington has an estimated 11.9 million acres of land outside of that

administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, National

Forest System (NFS). This land is collectively referred to in the text of this report

as “non-NFS.” About 72 percent of the non-NFS land was forested with 59 percent

being timberland (forest land capable of producing industrial wood products and

not reserved from management for wood products). Forest industry owned about

50 percent of the non-NFS timberland, whereas the proportions for other private

and other public were 26 and 24 percent, respectively. Net volume of growing

stock was estimated as 27.7 billion cubic feet, with 83 percent in conifer species.

The three species with the greatest volume were Douglas-fir (42 percent), western

hemlock (28 percent), and red alder (11 percent). About 37 percent of the volume

was on land owned by other public owners, 38 percent by forest industry, and 24

percent by other private owners. Estimated annual growth of growing stock for

non-NFS lands was 1.2 billion cubic feet, while the average annual mortality was

0.3 billion cubic feet and the average annual harvest was 1.0 billion cubic feet.

About 4 percent of the non-NFS timberland present in 1990 was converted to

nonforest land uses, and 1 percent was designated as reserved.

Preface

Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) is a nationwide program of the USDA Forest

Service authorized by the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Research

Act of 1978. Work units at Forest Service research and experiment stations conduct

forest resource inventories throughout the 50 states. The FIA Program of the

Pacific Northwest Research Station in Portland, Oregon, is responsible for forest

inventories in Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington.

Timber Resource Statistics for Nonnational Forest Land in Western Washington 2001

Introduction

The Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) unit of the USDA Forest Service, Pacific

Northwest Research Station conducted a multiresource inventory in the forests

of western Washington in 2000. The inventory included all lands except those

administered by the USDA Forest Service National Forest System (NFS). This

report summarizes the timber resource statistics for the nonnational forests land

of western Washington. Data collected by the NFS for their lands will be included

in a forthcoming statistical report for the entire state. Other resources sampled but

not included in this report are understory vegetation, insect and disease damage,

coarse woody debris, and snags. These data will be incorporated in future analyses

of the status of western Washington’s forests. For inventory purposes, the area of

western Washington is divided into three regions: the Puget Sound area, the

Olympic Peninsula, and southwest Washington.

Western Washington was first inventoried in 1931-33 (Andrews and Cowlin

1940); subsequent inventories were conducted in 1937-41 (various forest survey

reports by county), 1948-60 (various forest survey reports by county), 1963-67

(Bolsinger 1969, 1971; Hazard 1965), 1978-79 (Bassett and Oswald 1981a, 1981b,

1982), and 1988-90 (MacLean and others 1991a, 1991b, 1991c, 1992). The current

grid system is a systematic sample that was implemented in the early 1960s; before

this grid, a type map system was used for inventory statistics.

In the late 1990s, the national FIA Program implemented several changes to

the base plot grid, the timing of sampling, and the field plot design to improve

national standardization and comparability across states and ownerships (Gillespie

1999). If the new annualized design had been implemented in Washington starting

in 2000, it would have been 19 years between completion of the last inventory in

1990 and the sampling of all 10 annual panels in 2009. It was decided instead to

close out the old field sample design with a rapid periodic sample in 2000 to

provide a current estimate of forest conditions and trends. This sample collected

less field data than the most recent inventory in 1990. The new annualized inventory design was started in Washington in 2002.

This report contains statistical tables that provide current estimates of forest

land area, change estimates, number of trees, timber volume, growth, mortality,

and harvest for nonnatural forest lands.

Highlights

Forested land constituted about 72 percent of the 11.9 million acres of non-NFS

land in 2000 (table 1). About 82 percent of the nonnational forest land, or 7.0

million acres, qualified as timberland: forest land capable of producing industrial

wood products and not reserved from management for wood products (see the

“Terminology” section for definitions of all terms in this report). The amount of

timberland declined by about 5 percent between 1990 and 2000, with 4 percent

being converted to nonforest uses and 1 percent being converted to reserved

categories (table 25a). This was an acceleration from the 1980-90 period, when

timberland area declined by about 3 percent (MacLean and others 1992). Most of

the losses in timberland came from conversion of 146,000 acres to urban land uses,

and another 100,000 acres of previous timberland being reclassified as roads.

The harvest of timber declined on all ownerships between the 1980s and

1990s, (table 28a). In the 1980s, production averaged 0.77, 0.70, and 3.5 billion

board feet per year from national forest, other public, and private lands, respectively (MacLean and others 1992). In the 1990s, production averaged 0.12, 0.49,

and 2.8 billion board feet per year, respectively, for a total decline of 20 percent.

Nevertheless, standing volume on non-NFS timberlands in western Washington

declined from 29.1 to 27.7 billion cubic feet based on plots measured during the

previous and present inventories (table 26a). Most of the decline is attributed to the

conversion of timberland to nonforest land uses; on lands that remained timberland, growth was only 2 percent lower than removals plus mortality. The growth

compared to mortality and removals differed by survey unit, with growth exceeding

mortality and removals by 5 percent in the Puget Sound area (table 26b) and 17

percent in the southwest area (table 26d), but was lower by 20 percent in the

Olympic Peninsula (table 26c). Growth was greater than mortality and removals on

other public lands, but not on private lands.

The stand size class for non-NFS owners in western Washington tended to be

skewed to the small size classes. About 6 percent of the non-NFS lands had stands

with a quadratic mean diameter (QMD) of 21 inches or greater (“large sawtimber”), and 43 percent had a QMD less than 9 inches (“seedling-sapling” and

“poletimber”) (table 7a). Public owners such as state, county, and other federal

owners had about 10 percent of their lands with a QMD of 21 inches or greater.

Forest industry and nonindustrial private owners had about 3 and 9 percent of their

land in the larger diameters, respectively. Forty-eight percent of all non-NFS lands

had QMDs between 9 and 21 inches.

Inventory Procedures

Western Washington was inventoried by using a double sampling for stratification

scheme (Cochran 1977). The sampling is implemented on a permanent systematic

grid and produces an even geographic distribution of both secondary (field) and

primary (photo) plots across the state. Photo plots are placed at random inside each

square of the grid.

The primary sample for the non-NFS lands of western Washington consisted

of a grid of about 26,000 points established in 1999 by using aerial photographs

taken in 1998. Data collected on each point included amount of tree cover by

species group, average conifer height, owner, land use classification, and forest

stage of development. In anticipation of including reserved lands such as national

parks in future annualized inventories, data were collected on primary sample

points on reserved lands.

The secondary sample consisted of 828 forest and nonforest field locations

established in previous inventories and remeasured or reclassified in 2000. To

collect the necessary data for this rapid periodic closeout inventory, the secondary

sample consisted of two systematically selected plots out of every three of the base

inventory grid sampled in 1988-89. This sample represents about a 1-in-24

subsample of the primary sample.

In 1988-89, a cluster of five subplots was measured at grid locations that met

the definition for accessible timberland. At that time, the subplots sampled a single

homogeneous condition (i.e., land use class or stand type), by moving subplots

into the condition if necessary. Variable-radius sampling was used to select trees

over 7 inches diameter at breast height (d.b.h.), and a smaller fixed-radius plot was

used to sample trees <7 inches d.b.h. Plots that were sawtimber stands (average

diameter ≥9 inches d.b.h. for conifer stands or ≥11 inches d.b.h. for hardwood

stands) during the 1978-79 inventory and that had not been disturbed since then

were measured by using a “walk-through” protocol in 1988-89. Under this protocol, trees that grew into the prism plot in the intervening period were not measured, and trees on sub-plots numbered 3 to 5 had fewer measurements taken on

them. For stands with an average diameter <5 inches d.b.h., supplemental “stocking plots” were installed to obtain more detailed information on stand composition.

In 2000, three of the five previously measured subplots on timberland plots

that remained in the same condition as the grid point (the center of subplot 1) and

which met the criteria for accessible timberland were fully measured, including

trees that grew into the fixed and variable-radius plots. Supplemental stocking

plots were not installed. Access was denied to 10 of the timberland plots; careful

examination of aerial photography indicated no harvest or other disturbance had

occurred to these plots, so tree growth and mortality were projected from the

previously collected data by using species-specific growth regressions and mortality rates derived from the other inventory data.

Inventory data are summarized by using various land, owner, and forest type

criteria in the following tables. Definitions for some of the owner categories

used in the Pacific Northwest differ from those used in national FIA summary

publications. For example, in national publications “forest industry” only includes

owners that operate wood-processing plants; in Pacific Northwest reports it also

includes other owners that grow timber for industrial use. See the “Terminology”

section for definitions of terms.

Land and Water Area Updated

The U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census compiles and publishes

the acreage of land and water in the United States every 10 years (U.S. Department

of Commerce 2000). These area figures, available by state and county, are used as

the basis for the gross number of acres to be inventoried in each county. The previous inventory was based on 1980 census data, and the current inventory uses

1990 census figures. Raster-scanned topographic maps from the U.S. Department

of the Interior, Geological Survey and a geographic information system were used

for the newer assessment by the Bureau of the Census to identify water bodies and

landforms and to determine the size of much smaller areas than was previously

possible. As a result, the definition of inland water was changed to reflect the finer

resolution. Streams with a minimum width of 200 feet are now recognized, compared to 660 feet in 1980; small water bodies are now at least 4.5 acres, compared

to 40 acres in the past. In addition, areas covered intermittently with water were

reclassified as “land”; the largest impact was in Pacific County, where land area

was increased by 43,000 acres from the 1980 to the 1990 census.

Change in Reserved Land Definitions

The standard national definition for reserved lands used by FIA has been changed

to: “Reserved land is withdrawn by law(s) prohibiting the management of land for

the production of wood products (not merely controlling or prohibiting wood

harvesting methods)... The prohibition against management for wood products

cannot be changed through decision of the land manager (management agency) or

through a change in land management personnel, but rather is permanent in nature”

(U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service 2000). In the 1988-90 inventory,
Timber Resource Statistics for Nonnational Forest Land in Western Washington 2001

5

reserved lands were lands that prohibited timber utilization (as opposed to management for timber production) and included lands that were administratively

withdrawn at the discretion of the landowner.

For non-NFS lands, the change in definition means that lands managed by

conservation groups or any other private entity are no longer considered reserved,

and public conservation lands that may occasionally harvest timber but do not

include timber production in their mandate (e.g., National Wildlife Refuges) are

now considered reserved.

Analysis of Change Between Inventories for

Nonnational Forest Lands

To analyze change in forest statistics, the 1988-89 data were recompiled to account

for technical changes in the 2000 inventory. The summaries presented in tables 25

through 27 have been developed from remeasured plots outside of national forests

and include recompiled data from the 1988-89 inventory. Caution should be used in

comparing present statistics and those published by MacLean and others (1991a,

1991b, 1991c) because of procedural changes, stratification differences, and plot

changes. Comparing estimates from previous to current ones is comparing independent estimates of the resource at different points in time; although both are valid

estimates, they will not be the same.

Reliability of Inventory Data

Inventories conducted by FIA are designed to provide sampling errors consistent

with national standards set by the Forest Service. The target error for area of

timberland is ≤3 percent per million acres and ≤10 percent per billion cubic feet of

growing-stock volume.

Estimates for inventory categories that occupy large areas are more precise

than estimates for small areas. Estimates for an entire survey unit—such as the

Puget Sound, Olympic Peninsula, or southwest units in western Washington—are

more reliable than estimates for individual counties. As estimates are made for

smaller portions of the sample population, the confidence intervals increase in

relation to the size of the estimate. Confidence intervals are quantitative expressions of the variability inherent in the estimation procedures for area and volume.

The tabulation below indicates, for instance, a 68-percent (one standard error)

chance that the true timberland area for non-NFS owners in the Puget Sound unit

(2,264,000 acres) is within the range of 2,194,000 to 2,334,000 acres.

Confidence intervals vary with the size of the estimate and the amount of

variance associated with the estimate. The tables report the sampling error for the

row and column totals in terms of percentages, calculated by dividing the standard

error by the estimated value. The following is a set of approximate confidence

intervals calculated by using a regression analysis between actual standard error

and the estimate involved. These regressions have r-square values greater than

0.85, indicating that 85 percent of the variance in the relation can be explained by

the equation. The actual error estimates for the cells in each table can be obtained

from the Portland FIA unit, either in writing or from their Web site (http://
