CHAPTER 10 – MAINTENANCE OF FOREST ROADS
13.4 – Commensurate Sharing
1. Maintenance of Roads for Joint Commercial and Recreation use (C5.42).
a. Nontraffic. Generated (NTG) Maintenance. Logging traffic counts will be
generated from sale volumes. Recreation and Forest administrative vehicle traffic
counts will be based on estimates from experience or direct counts when a lack of
confidence exists. Traffic count estimates will be documented during the appraisal
process.
The Recreation Use Period (RUP) on the Wallowa-Whitman Forest is generally from June 1 to
October 15.
b. Traffic-Generated (TG) Maintenance.
(1) Forest Service Share Determination. Determine Forest Service maintenance
responsibility by the traffic generated maintenance activities that are historically
required on the Maintenance Level II, III, IV, and V roads due to recreation and
administrative use, e.g.:
Road #0000: 2 bladings per year
Road #1000: 1 blading every 2 years
Each Zone will establish the Forest Service maintenance responsibility for its Joint Use roads.
(2) Purchaser Share Determination. Determination of the number of bladings required
of the purchaser or permittee may be based on the following table or local
experience.
Surface type
Lanes
MMBF per Surface Blading
Non-Water
Water
Dust Abated Dust Abated
Native/Crushed Rock
1
2-3 MMBF
0.75-1MMBF
4. Performance of Road Maintenance.
a. Responsibilities for non-RSR maintenance on aggregate surfaced roads. The Forest
Service will only accept responsibility for road maintenance work on aggregate
surfaced roads by the collection of maintenance deposits on roads listed in Exhibit A
except as otherwise approved by the Forest Engineer.
The Wallowa-Whitman will generally do slough and slide removal, brushing, logging out, and culvert
cleaning to accomplish its maintenance share.

b. Responsibilties for Road Surface Replace Maintenance on Aggregate Surfaced
Roads. There is no listing of roads where collections will be made for RSR. If the
following criteria are met, RSR should be collected:
The road must be surfaced with a maintainable depth of crushed rock.
The road must be classified as an arterial or collector.
The road must not be listed for spot surface rock replacement in timber sale
provisions C5.42 or C5.43.
If these criteria are met, RSR will be collected from all commercial users. Other circumstances will
result in replacing the surfacing by reconstruction or maintenance rocking activities.
c. All asphalt surfaced roads will require co-op maintenance collections for both RSR
and non-RSR maintenance.
d. Co-op Collections for Road Use Permits. On road use permits, the permittee must
must supply haul records for use with billing adjustments.
e. Co-op Collection Rates.
(1) Base Rate – The majority of commercial traffic will involve timber haul, so rates
are expressed on a $/MBF/MI BASIS. For merchantable timber sold on an acres,
area, or cubic volume basis, compute road surface replacement and maintenance on
a per thousand per mile basis and convert to other measurements units. For other
types of haul (such as rock haul), a rate will need to be determined on the specific
activity.
Asphalt Rate: $0.80/Mbf-mile (includes RSR & non-RSR maintenance)
Aggregate Road Surface Replacement Rate: $0.79/Mbf-mile
Aggregate non-RSR maintenance Rate: $0.48/Mbf-mile
Reduced rock replacement deposits may be considered during the appraisal stage for sales requiring
winter logging as the only permitted period of haul and hauling on an ice or snow floor is anticipated.
Any other reduction in rock replacement deposits will not be permitted without a written analysis by
the Zone Engineer that has been approved by the District Ranger. A copy of the written analysis will
be forwarded to the staff officer responsible for Engineering activities.
Based on 18 kip single axle equivalent factors for log trucks, about 18% of the surface
maintenance/RSR cost is due to the empty truck, and the remaining 82% is due to the loaded truck. If
one way haul is to be used in a certain situation, use these percentages to reduce collection rates on the
routes to be used, unless better information is available.
(2) Overhead – Increase the base rate to cover indirect expenses as the Washington,
Regional, Supervisor’s, and District offices. The current overhead rates can be
found in a Wallowa-Whitman Supplement to FSH 1909.13 (CWFS-other). One
rate is for SO/RO/WO overhead, and another rate is for District overhead.

(3) Documentation – when co-op collection deposits will be required for a sale, Exhibit
B, Titled “Backup Data for C5.411 – Road Maintenance Deposit Schedule,” is
required to be a part of the appraisal. This form provides information needed for
the distribution of the collected money. This form is also useful when collecting
deposits for road use permits. Exhibit B give an example of how to complete the
calculations for filling out this form.
(4) Dust Abatement Policy – Dust abatement is not shared by the Forest Service unless
maintenance standards and recreation use requires dust abatement without
commercial use.
Forest Commercial users shall abate road dust caused by their operations when one or more of the
following conditions exist:
a. Where dust is a safety hazard due to reduced visibility.
b. Where dust adversely affects the environment or creates unacceptable
resource impacts adjacent to the road. This includes streams, lakes, and
developed recreation sites.
c. Where lack of dust abatement would accelerate road surface deterioration
to an unacceptable level.
Environmental studies and knowledge of the chemical content of the palliative to be used must indicate
that prudent controls will likely result in acceptable environmental risks. All applications should be
accomplished under the following guidelines:
None of the dust palliative materials should be dumped into or allowed to flow into
streams or bodies of water.
If necessary to restrict all palliatives to the traveled way of the road, a small berm
Should be temporarily made (removed after palliative is placed) on either shoulder or
Prevent the material, in its liquid state, from running off the road during the application.
No dust palliative material should be applied when it is raining or when there is a threat
of rain within the next 24 hours. Pollution of any stream or drainage by any dust
palliative material will not be permitted.

SCHEDULE
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Assume there is split haul because some products go to different mills.
VOLUME: Total sale volume = 3.0 MMBF
Some of it is cubic (CCF), and some of it is board foot volume (MBF).
Conversion Factor, MBF to CUBIC = F1 = 2.253 CCF/MBF (Will vary – from TEA appraisal input
sheet for the whole sale)
Conversion Factor, CUBIC to MBF = F2 – 0.444 MBF/CCF
VOLUME TO PILOT ROCK:
800 MBF
3830 CCF x 0.444 = 1700 MBF
Total volume to La Grande = 2 MMBF
HAUL ROUTE:
1.0 MMBF goes to Pilot Rock via 5160 (4 miles), 51 on La Grande District ( 6 Miles), 51 on Baker
District (4 miles, and 52 on Umatilla (33 miles)
2.00 MMBF goes to La Grande via 5160 (5 miles) and 51 (5 miles)
WALLOWA-WHITMAN COOP RATES (FROM FSH 7709.58):
Collection for paved roads = $0.78/MBF-MILE
RSR for aggregate roads - $0.79/MBF-MILE
SO/RO/WO overhead = 45% (FSH 1909.13)
District overhead varies by district (FSH 1909.13)
UMATILLA COOP RATES FOR 52 ROAD:
Traffic generated maintenance = $0.19/MBF-MILE
Slide removal = $0.06/MBF-MILE
Total non-RSR maintenance = $0.25/MBF-MILE
RSR = $0.38/MBF-MILE
Overhead rate = 30%
Note: Check with the Umatilla for current rates.

ROAD CLOSURE COSTS: USE $4000
SUMMARY FOR TOTAL SALE VOLUME:
NOTE: These rates do not include overhead.
RM BR 51 LAD = $(4680 + 7800)/3000 MBF = $4.16/MBF
RM PB BAKER = $3120/3000 MBF = $1.04/MBF
RSR GR GRND RONDE = $(3160 + 7900)/3000 MBF = $3.69/MBF
RM UMATILLA = $8250/3000 MBF = $2.75/MBF
RSR UMATILLA = $12,540/3000 MBF = $4.18/MBF
GR RD CLOSURE = $4000/3000 MBF = $1.33/MBF
Next, this information can be plugged into the backup data form. To do this, you will need a current
list of CWFS accounts such as the one on the following page. If you are unsure of whether or not you
have a current list, contact Budget and Finance in the Supervisor’s Office.
Since this sale does not include any volume that will be scaled by the ton, the collection rates do not
need to be converted into a $/ton format.
