Forest Harvest Summary for Selected Towns in Addison and Washington Counties, VT Community Biomass Project

Objective: Understand current harvest volumes from the local area MRV towns: Warren, Waitsfield, Fayston, Moretown Harvest data from: –UVA (current use) enrolled private lands; –State, Town and Federal (national forest) lands Caveat: This is a rough estimate! Non-current use private land harvest not included Current use data is not perfect

Harvest by land ownership type National Forest StateTownPrivate; UVA Percent of total harvest 0% 100% 95%

Total annual harvest volumes (cords) Avg. Annual 2,140

Avg annual harvest of 2140 cords (~1070 MBF) is enough wood to frame ~80 new 2000 sq.ft. houses. (13.7 MBF/house according to National Association of Home Builders)

Harvest by town (cords) Varies greatly year to year Bristol and New Haven lowest, Starksboro highest

Boards vs. Energy 55% sawtimber, 45% low grade wood (cordwood, chips, etc.) 966 cords avg. annual low grade harvest

Home Heating POTENTIAL Avg annual low grade harvest (966 cords) is enough to heat 6% of households (223 homes) in the focal towns. (4.3crds/house/yr source: 2009 UVM Wood Consumption Survey ) Note: does not account for other existing uses »Subtract at least 7.8% (313 homes) for Mt. Abraham High School’s chip supply and ~10% of Middlebury supply (10% based on proportion of their woodshed within the project area) »i.e. These two users consume more than the current low grade harvest recorded here.

Current vs. Potential Harvest Current low-grade harvest (966 cords/yr) is 4-9% of projected harvestable low-grade wood volume grown annually (10,990-23,810 cords/yr from Lapin and Rodgers 2009).

Potential harvest volumes as energy 10,990-23,810 cords/yr low-grade wood grown (Lapin and Rodgers 2009) Potential heating for homes (64-140% of existing homes) USE WITH CAUTION!
