To inform the dialogue on sustainability, the NC State University Extension-Forestry established a sampling study to characterize logger utilization and residual woody biomass across the state. Study sites covered all physiographic regions of North Carolina. On study sites prism sweeps for woody biomass (Bebber and Thomas, 2003) were used to quickly estimate wood residues left after harvesting. Estimated woody biomass residues were compared with scale ticket information from loggers, consultants and timber buyers. Logger utilization was developed using these collected data.
