Abstract:
Historic salvage sale areas (with buffered roads) are reconstructed. Historic salvage timber sales in the H J Andrews from 1954 - 1974 were outlined on a variety of hard copy maps. These manuscripts were digitized into four non-overlapping coverages. Each coverage was turned into a region and the UNION command was used to combine the data into a single coverage of salvage sale regions. The road layer was buffered by 50 yards (45.72 meters)and these areas were added to the coverage.

Purpose:
To document areas that received salvage harvest treatments. It was assumed that all the roads received treatments and as such, the road layer was buffered.
