A PROFILE OF THE NORTHERN NSW PRIVATE FOREST RESOURCE AND THE PRIVATE NATIVE FOREST INDUSTRY

Acknowledgments

The maps in this report were prepared and printed by Forests NSW North East Region. John Murray and Rob Kirwood of Forests NSW assisted with this part of the project.

Forests NSW Future Forests Division provided information on the Forests NSW hardwood plantation resource up to 2002. Individual Plantation Companies provided information on private plantations for the same period.

John Ball of the Department of Natural Resources, Grafton, provided the data for the post authorised plantation areas.

Forests NSW provided sawmill database information.

Without the assistance and cooperation of the many industry people who responded to the phone surveys, The Industry Profile section of this report would not have been possible.

The assistance and encouragement of John Macgregor-Skinner from Northern Rivers Private Forestry is greatly appreciated.

David Ryan of Boambee Forestry Services contributed to the original 1994 North Coast Forest and Plantation Resource Study.

Photographs of forest types in the report were taken by Northern NSW Forestry Services.
