R -- PREPARATION OF LUMBER PRICE INDICES POC H. Laurie Lewandowski The USDA Forest Service intends to enter into a procurement for lumber indices with Western Wood Products Association (WWPA) for a 9-month term, beginning July 1, 1996. WWPA provides monthly indices for 10 species or species groups of western softwood lumber under an existing contract. The method used by WWPA to prepare the indices is to collect actual lumber invoices of the lumber sold in the western United States. These indices are used to adjust stumpage rates on timber sale contracts in the West to reflect market changes. WWPA has provided this service since the mid-80's. See Note(s): 22. (0157)
