Description: This dataset estimates the location and mass in dry tonnes at 0% moisture content (MC) and in tonnes at harvest 'As is' MC of forestry harvest residues for native cypress across NSW, Australia. This information was originally collated for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment (ABBA) project and has been updated several times. It is available for use in the NSW BioSMART tool (Biomass Spatial and Modular Assessment of Resources Tool - https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/forestry/science/forest-carbon/biomass-for-bioenergy/nsw-biosmart) and on the National Map (https://nationalmap.gov.au/) platform.
The boundary features are from Forestry Corporation NSW (FCNSW) and this layer is mapped using the Management Area boundary.
Each region shows the total annual average tonnes of native cypress harvest residues for the period July 2013 to June 2023 (average of 10 years) and reports on potential residues from crown and branches, and pulp logs. The key species is recorded and is based on the most commonly harvested species of the mapped wood type for the region.
The residues were calculated using production data collated from FCNSW and from research carried out by the NSW Forest Science unit, Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development - Forestry. The residue calculations were based on formulas that took into consideration a component of residues to remain in the field. These included 50% of crown and branches for native cypress, native hardwood and plantation hardwood; 100% bark residues for all hardwood species; and 100% stump residues for all wood types. Please note, Southern NSW plantation softwood pulp logs have not been released due to commercial confidentiality and there are no pulp logs available in Western NSW.
For more information on the derivation of the residue volumes please contact the NSW Forest Science unit (https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/forestry/science/forest-carbon/abba).

Description: This dataset estimates the location and mass in dry tonnes at 0% moisture content (MC) and in tonnes at harvest/pre-processing 'As is' MC of forestry sawmill residues for native cypress across NSW, Australia. This information was originally collated for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment (ABBA) project and has been updated several times. It is available for use in the NSW BioSMART tool (Biomass Spatial and Modular Assessment of Resources Tool - https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/forestry/science/forest-carbon/biomass-for-bioenergy/nsw-biosmart) and on the National Map (https://nationalmap.gov.au/) platform.
The boundary features are from Forestry Corporation NSW (FCNSW) and this layer is mapped using the Management Area boundary.
Each region shows the total annual average tonnes of native cypress sawmill residues for the period July 2013 to June 2023 (average of 10 years) and reports on potential residues from bark, green sawdust and green offcuts.
The residues were calculated using production data collated from FCNSW and from research carried out by the NSW Forest Science unit, Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development - Forestry. The residue calculations excluded dry mill operations, as the volumes are much lower and are much more likely to be committed in-house.

Each region shows the total annual average tonnes of native hardwood and plantation hardwood sawmill residues for the period July 2013 to June 2023 (average of 10 years) and reports on potential residues from green sawdust and green offcuts. Native hardwood and plantation hardwood residues at the sawmill level are mapped together as the information is not available separately, given that both forest types come to the same mill for processing.
The residues were calculated using production data collated from FCNSW and from research carried out by the NSW Forest Science unit, Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development - Forestry.
