TIMBER SALE REQUIREMENTS 
SEC. 417. No timber sale in Region 10 shall be adver-
tised if the indicated rate is deficit when appraised using 
a residual value approach that assigns domestic Alaska val-
ues for western red cedar. Program accomplishments shall 
be based on volume sold. Should Region 10 sell, in the cur-
rent fiscal year, the annual average portion of the decadal 
allowable sale quantity called for in the current Tongass 
Land Management Plan in sales which are not deficit when 
appraised using a residual value approach that assigns do-
mestic Alaska values for western red cedar, all of the west-
ern red cedar timber from those sales which is surplus to 
the needs of domestic processors in Alaska, shall be made 
available to domestic processors in the contiguous 48 United 
States at prevailing domestic prices. Should Region 10 sell, 
in the current fiscal year, less than the annual average por-
tion of the decadal allowable sale quantity called for in the 
Tongass Land Management Plan in sales which are not def-
icit when appraised using a residual value approach that 
assigns domestic Alaska values for western red cedar, the 
volume of western red cedar timber available to domestic 
processors at prevailing domestic prices in the contiguous 
48 United States shall be that volume: (1) which is surplus 
to the needs of domestic processors in Alaska; and (2) is 
that percent of the surplus western red cedar volume deter-

which has been sold on the Tongass to the annual average 
portion of the decadal allowable sale quantity called for in 
the current Tongass Land Management Plan. The percent-
age shall be calculated by Region 10 on a rolling basis as 
each sale is sold (for purposes of this amendment, a ‘‘rolling 
basis’’ shall mean that the determination of how much west-
ern red cedar is eligible for sale to various markets shall 
be made at the time each sale is awarded). Western red 
cedar shall be deemed ‘‘surplus to the needs of domestic 
processors in Alaska’’ when the timber sale holder has pre-
sented to the Forest Service documentation of the inability 
to sell western red cedar logs from a given sale to domestic 
Alaska processors at a price equal to or greater than the 
log selling value stated in the contract. All additional west-
ern red cedar volume not sold to Alaska or contiguous 48 
United States domestic processors may be exported to for-
eign markets at the election of the timber sale holder. All 
Alaska yellow cedar may be sold at prevailing export prices 
at the election of the timber sale holder.
