3. Planting Acres  Bound the estimate  Survey for planting density  Shift to nursery sales?  Should the report be a regeneration report instead of a planting report?  Include comparison to acres harvested by management type  Estimated pine acreage naturally regenerated

4. TPO Report Interval  Annual reporting with a maximum of a six month lag  Quarterly estimate of wood used by product  Strictly for estimating demand price elasticity  Regionally consistent

5.

6. TPO Product Allocation  Utilization Studies  Is the sample size large enough to be useful?  Do these studies tell everything we need to know?  Can TPO provide better information by surveying usage by product?  Ask mills to provide how much wood they consumed in a standard product class definition.  Ask mills to provide how much wood they consume by their definition.

7. TPO Other Issues  Can other organizations provide resources to shorten reporting interval?  University of Georgia wood demand report  State agencies  Improving the web interface for data retrieval  Retrieve data by county  Transparency
