In 1994, volume of roundwood products removed from North Carolina's forests totaled 848 million cubic feet-8 percent more than in 1992. Mill byproducts generated from primary manufacturers increased 8 percent to 297 million cubic feet. Almost all of the plant residues were used, mostly for fuel and fiber products. Saw logs and pulpwood were the leading roundwood products at 384 and 359 million cubic feet, respectively; veneer logs were third with 83 million cubic feet. The number of primary processing plants declined from 357 in 1992 to 322 in 1994. Total receipts increased 5 percent to 773 million cubic feet.

The Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) Research Work Unit of the USDA Forest Service developed the Timber Product Output (TPO) Database Retrieval System to help customers answer questions about timber harvesting and use in the Southern Region. This system acts as an interface to a standard set of consistently coded TPO data for each State and county in the region and Nation. This regional and national set of TPO data consists of 11 variables that describe for each county the roundwood products harvested, logging residues left in the woods, other timber removals (i.e. land clearing and reserved timber removals), and wood and bark residues generated by the county's primary wood-using mills. The system is available through the FIA Web site: http: //srsfia2.fs.fed.us/
