Scaling of Logs Act Sparks Call for Repeal
The 1883 territorial act requires log scaling by a governor appointed officer before shipment or sale with fees of five cents per thousand up to 300000 feet and 334 cents thereafter. The law is largely ignored in Puget Sound and Grays Harbor but enforced in Cowlitz and Columbia areas. critics say it is bad law and poorly applied.
