SURVEY PRIORITY JUSTIFICATION

Is litigation involved now or being threatened? Explain: N/A
If trespass is on state land, is the survey likely to prevent further trespass and harm, or is it to prove trespass? Explain: The survey in Section 21 could prove trespass and/or prevent future trespass. The true situation is unknown.
Is prevention of access to a significant area of state land involved? Explain: N/A
Will a survey allow harvest of timber that is being held from the market due to survey problems? What is the value of the proposed sale? Explain (i.e., give the compartment, year of entry, timber condition, etc.): Yes, The survey will enable us to complete a timber sale that includes the harvest the following stands in Compartment 92 of the Atlanta Forest Management Unit: Stand 29: 13 acres of Oak-Pine at approx. $800/ac $10,400 Stand 39: 16 acres of Pine-Oak at approx. $750/ac $12,000 Stand 53: 12 acres of Oak-Pine at approx. $750/ac $9,000 Stand 55: 32 acres of Aspen at approx. $1,000/ac $32,000 Stand 60: 22 acres of Oak-Pine at approx. $500/ac $11,000 Stand 67: 12 acres of Aspen-Mixed Pine at approx. $850/ac $10,200 The overall estimated value of the timber that would be sold in the related sale is $84,600. The survey will aid the private line sale boundary of Stands 29, 60, and 67.
Are there reasonable alternatives to a survey that will allow at least a partial or temporary solution? (Example: Reduce size of the sale, agreement with or notification of adjacent landowner until proper survey can be done, establish line yourself, etc.) Explain: There are not any reasonable alternatives. Failing to harvest up to the private line will confuse the property line location and possibly invite future trespass issues.
