All volumes reported in thousand board feet (MBF) Scribner. Ownerships considered private include: Industrial private (Industrial), Nonindustrial private forests (N.I.P.F), and Native American tribes (Tribal). Ownerships considered public include Idaho Department of Lands (State), United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service (Forest Service), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and County and Municipal (Other Public).



Private timber harvest data were obtained through special request from the Idaho Department of Lands (IDL) from 2002 to present. Data represents MBF volumes for all Industrial & NIPF timber harvested by calendar year.



For timber harvests occurring on Idaho Department of Lands (State), IDL is able to provide total timber harvest volumes on their lands by calendar year. These annual timber harvest volumes were portioned out at the county level based on the most recent Idaho FIDACS (Forest Industries Data Collection System) report: http://www.bber.umt.edu/FIR/S_ID.asp#fidacs



For timber harvest on the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) timberlands, data is collected from the BLM Timber Harvest Information System and include: commercial harvests, fuel wood, special forest products (timber harvests that are too small to be viewed as commercial), and stewardship contracting. BLM data can be found at: https://www.blm.gov/programs/natural-resources/forests-and-woodlands/timber-sales/bureau-wide-timber-data.



For timber harvest on USDA Forest Service lands, current data is obtained by special request from USDA FS, Nationa Forest System. Forest Service data include all convertible products including fuelwood and non-saw material.
