High Returns Forecast In AEC Timber Sales
The Atomic Energy Commission earned 331480 from Savannah River Plant timber sales in the year ending June 30. The Central Savannah River Area timber dealers bid in, with 183000 acres managed by the U S Forest Service. Since 1951 the Land Management Program has netted 3108333 against 4662335 costs, with 100000000 trees planted now valued at about 28371600. Future years are expected to yield higher returns as investments narrow the gap. Local crews cut most pulpwood for mills in Augusta and Savannah, with sawtimber sent to Augusta and Williston, providing roughly 100 local jobs.
