Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: RCW 84.33.091 requires the department to revise the stumpage value tables every six months. The department establishes stumpage value tables to apprise timber harvesters of the timber values used to calculate the timber excise tax. The values in the proposed WAC 458-40-660 will apply to the first half of 2012.
Further, RCW 84.33.140 requires that forest land values be adjusted annually by a statutory formula contained in RCW 84.33.140(3). The department proposes to amend the forest land values rule (WAC 458-40-540) to adjust the table of forest land values in Washington as required by statute. County assessors will use these published land values for property tax purposes in 2012.
Reasons Supporting Proposal: RCW 84.33.091 requires that the stumpage values provided in WAC 458-40-660 be updated as of January 1 and July 1 of each year. RCW 84.33.140 requires that the values provided in WAC 458-40-540 be adjusted as of January 1 of each year.
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 82.32.300, 82.01.060(2), and 84.33.096.
Statute Being Implemented: RCW 84.33.091 and 84.33.140.
Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.
Name of Proponent: Washington state department of revenue, governmental.
Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting: Mark E. Bohe, 1025 Union Avenue S.E., Suite #544, Olympia, WA, (360) 534-1574; Implementation and Enforcement: Stuart Thronson, 1025 Union Avenue S.E., Suite #100, Olympia, WA, (360) 534-1300.

(1) Log scale conversions Western and Eastern Washington. See conversion methods WAC 458-40-680. (2) Includes Western Larch. (3) Includes Alaska-Cedar. (4) Includes all Hemlock, Spruce and true Fir species, or any other conifer not listed on this page. (5) Stumpage value per ton. (6) Stumpage value per cord. (7) Stumpage value per 8 lineal feet or portion thereof. (8) Stumpage value per lineal foot.
(3) Harvest value adjustments. The stumpage values in subsection (2) of this rule for the designated stumpage value areas are adjusted for various logging and harvest conditions, subject to the following:(a) No harvest adjustment is allowed for special forest products, chipwood, or small logs.
(b) Conifer and hardwood stumpage value rates cannot be adjusted below one dollar per MBF.
(c) Except for the timber yarded by helicopter, a single logging condition adjustment applies to the entire harvest unit. The taxpayer must use the logging condition adjustment class that applies to a majority (more than 50%) of the acreage in that harvest unit. If the harvest unit is reported over more than one quarter, all quarterly returns for that harvest unit must report the same logging condition adjustment. The helicopter adjustment applies only to the timber volume from the harvest unit that is yarded from stump to landing by helicopter.
(d) The volume per acre adjustment is a single adjustment class for all quarterly returns reporting a harvest unit. A harvest unit is established by the harvester prior to harvesting. The volume per acre is determined by taking the volume logged from the unit excluding the volume reported as chipwood or small logs and dividing by the total acres logged. Total acres logged does not include leave tree areas (RMZ, UMZ, forested wetlands, etc.,) over 2 acres in size.
(e) A domestic market adjustment applies to timber which meet the following criteria:
(i) Public timber -- Harvest of timber not sold by a competitive bidding process that is prohibited under the authority of state or federal law from foreign export may be eligible for the domestic market adjustment. The adjustment may be applied only to those species of timber that must be processed domestically. According to type of sale, the adjustment may be applied to the following species:
Federal Timber Sales: All species except Alaska-cedar. (Stat. Ref. - 36 C.F.R. 223.10)
State, and Other Nonfederal, Public Timber Sales: Western Redcedar only. (Stat. Ref. - 50 U.S.C. appendix 2406.1)
(ii) Private timber -- Harvest of private timber that is legally restricted from foreign export, under the authority of The Forest Resources Conservation and Shortage Relief Act (Public Law 101-382), (16 U.S.C. Sec. 620 et seq.); the Export Administration Act of 1979 (50 U.S.C. App. 2406(i)); a Cooperative Sustained Yield Unit Agreement made pursuant to the act of March 29, 1944 (16 U.S.C. Sec. 583-583i); or Washington Administrative Code (WAC 240-15-015(2)) is also eligible for the Domestic Market Adjustment.

Note: This adjustment only applies to published MBF sawlog values.
(4) Damaged timber. Timber harvesters planning to remove timber from areas having damaged timber may apply to the department of revenue for an adjustment in stumpage values. The application must contain a map with the legal descriptions of the area, an accurate estimate of the volume of damaged timber to be removed, a description of the damage sustained by the timber with an evaluation of the extent to which the stumpage values have been materially reduced from the values shown in the applicable tables, and a list of estimated additional costs to be incurred resulting from the removal of the damaged timber. The application must be received and approved by the department of revenue before the harvest commences. Upon receipt of an application, the department of revenue will determine the amount of adjustment to be applied against the stumpage values. Timber that has been damaged due to sudden and unforeseen causes may qualify.(a) Sudden and unforeseen causes of damage that qualify for consideration of an adjustment include:
(i) Causes listed in RCW 84.33.091; fire, blow down, ice storm, flood.
(ii) Others not listed; volcanic activity, earthquake.
(b) Causes that do not qualify for adjustment include:
(i) Animal damage, root rot, mistletoe, prior logging, insect damage, normal decay from fungi, and pathogen caused diseases; and
(ii) Any damage that can be accounted for in the accepted normal scaling rules through volume or grade reductions.
(c) The department of revenue will not grant adjustments for applications involving timber that has already been harvested but will consider any remaining undisturbed damaged timber scheduled for removal if it is properly identified.
(d) The department of revenue will notify the harvester in writing of approval or denial. Instructions will be included for taking any adjustment amounts approved.
(5) Forest-derived biomass, has a $0/ton stumpage value.
