Sheet 1: Instructions

Instructions for "ROUNDWOOD RECEIVED FOR PROCESSING, Composite-Fuel"
This instruction sheet is provided to help you fill out the "ROUNDWOOD RECEIVED FOR PROCESSING, Composite-Fuel" survey form.
This form has been designed to determine the location, size, and composition of the primary wood-using mills in your State,
the volume of roundwood harvested by product, species, and geographic location, and the volume and disposition of wood
residues generated during primary processing for the calendar year indicated. Your cooperation completing this form for your
mill will make the results of this survey comprehensive, accurate, and timely. All information is held in confidentiality and
used only for statistical reports. No individual mill production data will be released. Your cooperation is appreciated.
ROUNDWOOD is defined as any log, bolt, or other round section (including chips from roundwood)
cut from trees for industrial or consumer use. This includes saw logs, veneer logs, cooperage logs
and bolts, pilings, poles, posts, hewn ties, and various other round, split, or hewn products.
Page 1 -- Mill Information (This page only needs to be completed once per mill location.)
* Fill in the Business/Company name and mailing address. Also record the name and phone number of the owner, manager,
	or person that can be contacted if there are any questions concerning the information on the survey form.
* Record the address of the actual mill location if different from the business/company mailing address.
* Record the name of the County in which the mill is located. If Latitude and Longitude of mill location are available,
	they may be entered.
* If the mill is part of a larger, Parent company, record the Parent company name and address.
* Check the box if No wood was received at this mill location during the calender year of the survey.
	If no wood was received, no further information is needed. Please return the form in the enclosed envelope.
* Check the box under "Type of Roundwood Processed" that indicates the type of roundwood received at the mill
	for processing. If the mill processes more than one type of roundwood, complete a separate form for each.
* Enter the annual capacity of the mill when operating at full capacity, and indicate the unit of measure.
* Enter the number of employees, when the mill was established, and the mill status during the survey year.
* Check the box if you want the mill name and address to be withheld from "Regional/Statewide Industry" directories.

	the unit of measure for softwood and hardwood, and the average log length and top diameter of logs processed
	at the mill. If the Unit of Mearsure is a weight measurement, please indicate the conversion factor the mill uses
	for pounds per board foot or cord.

	total volume of roundwood received came from cities or towns (urban areas).
* Indicate what percent of the reported of the total volume of roundwood received came from salvaged dead trees.

	checked in Section 2.1. Break out the amount/percent by Roundwood, Whole tree chips or In-woods-chips (WTC),
	and peeled roundwood or peeled and chipped. Enter "W" in the 'Roundwood, WTC (W), Peeled (P)' colume for the
	amount/percent of wood that is whole tree chips or in-woods-chips. Enter "P" for the amount/percent that is peeled
	or peeled and chipped. Leave blank for bark on roundwood logs. Across the columns at the top of the table, enter the
	State and county, and foreign Country that the Raw Material (Logs/Roundwood) came from. Then fill in the table
	entering the amount or percent of each species that came from each county. If the species is not listed, enter it into
