Region: United States

New residential construction in the United States decreased more than expected in April 2018 as lesser starts of apartment buildings overshadowed a modest improvement in single-family structures. Notably, this is the second time in the last four months that housing starts has toppled. …Does This Downfall Matter? Although April starts and permits tumbled from the March figure, the larger picture is still overwhelming. Housing starts were up 10.5% from April 2017 buoyed by a 7.2% increase in single-family homes, and a 19.1% surge in apartments. Again, permits were 7.7% above the April 2017 rate of 1.26 million units helped by a 7.9% surge in single-family and 6.4% growth for buildings with five units or more. …For the upcoming period, if we delve deeper, the homebuilding industry falls within the top 5% of the Zacks Industry Rank and a good industry rank supports growth.

Region: United States

The rate of US new home construction fell for the second time in four months in April, dragged down by starts on apartment buildings, and adding to the woes for the housing market which is already weighed down by tight supply and rising prices. New housing starts fell 3.7 per cent to an annualised pace of 1.287m last month, the Census Bureau said on Wednesday. That was steeper than expectations for a 0.7 per cent drop to 1.31m and followed an upward revision to March figures. The report showed sharp declines in the Midwest, Northeast, and western US, while starts were up in the South. It also showed a sharp drop in the so-called multifamily or apartment project starts, while single-family starts edged up modestly.

Dozens of firefighters from across the upper Yakima Valley were battling a massive fire at Gleed area pallet factory late Wednesday night. Fed in part by stacks of flaming wood pallets, the fire’s glow could be seen for miles as smoke drifted east across the Valley into Yakima. Nearby resident Brandon Dean said he heard something that sounded like an explosion just before 10 p.m. and saw flames when he went to check it out. But by midnight, firefighters still wouldn’t say what caused the blaze at Universal Forest Products’ pallet factory just north of U.S. Highway 12 on North Mitchell Drive outside Gleed. About a dozen employees of the company who were watching the firefighters work would not comment on the situation.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., joined a bipartisan group of his Senate colleagues in introducing legislation to address the crisis facing printers and publishers in the United States. The Protecting Rational Incentives in Newsprint Trade Act of 2018, or PRINT Act for short, would suspend the import taxes on uncoated groundwood paper while the U.S. Department of Commerce examines the health of—and the effects on—the printing and publishing industry. “Local newspapers are a vital source of news and community information, especially in rural and small-town America. Unfair or punitive action taken against producers of groundwood paper would threaten to put many Georgia newspapers out of business and could cost up to 1,000 jobs in Georgia,” said Isakson.

In the early morning hours of April 24, flames ripped through a 180-unit wood-framed apartment complex under construction in Concord, Calif. Fortunately, the site was unoccupied at the time of the fire, which firefighters brought under control by dawn. But the damage was done; the $55-million project was declared a total loss. …AvalonBay had established a good approach to fire prevention, Feigin insists. It just wasn’t good enough. “We wanted a strategy that would eliminate the risk of construction fires altogether,” he says. That might sound like a tall order, given the widespread use of wood in multifamily construction. According to the American Wood Council (AWC), more than 60% of U.S. apartment buildings built between 2006 and 2015 used wood framing, with lower costs often given for its selection over steel or concrete. In most jurisdictions, fire-retardant treated (FRT) wood is required only on exterior walls, with more combustible materials primarily used for interiors.

NORWAY — What if instead of just reducing the environmental impact of the buildings we construct or striving “just” for zero energy status, we could construct or design structures that have a net positive effect on the planet? That’s the mission behind Powerhouse, a green building framework that has its roots in Norway. …The organization’s collective purpose is demonstrating that making buildings energy-positive is possible, even in a cold place such as Norway. Here’s the main definition of the structures that it hopes to inspire: “A Powerhouse shall, during its lifetime, produce more renewable energy than it uses for materials, production, operation, renovation and demolition.” …To achieve the net positive goal set out by Powerhouse, builders must focus on the entire lifecycle of the building and the materials used to construct it.

Federal wildfire researchers say most regions in Canada could be facing a long, hot, fiery summer. Wildfire starts and the amount of land burned were below average for the first few weeks of the season, but dry weather is turning things around, said Richard Carr, a fire research analyst with Natural Resources Canada. “We’ve had a long, lingering winter and a bit of a slow start to the fire season, but the numbers are higher than the same time last year.” Across the country, wildfire starts have been above average since the end of April. On the national fire danger map, the risk in almost all of the three most westerly provinces is rated at least high. Saskatchewan shows as almost entirely extreme. Two provinces have already had their first evacuations of the year.

First Nations groups in the Cariboo are calling for a moratorium on caribou hunting ahead of the limited entry hunt lottery draw, scheduled for the end of the month. On Monday, the Southern Dakelh Nation Alliance, which comprises Lhoosk’uz Dené Nation (Kluskus), Lhtako Dené Nation (Red Bluff), Nazko First Nation and Ulkatcho Nation (Anahim Lake), released a statement calling for the British Columbia government to put in place an immediate moratorium in the Cariboo region. The May 25 hunt lottery draw would allow for up to 38 caribou hunting licences in the Itcha Ilgachuz region. The season opens Sept. 10 and closes Oct. 15, 2018. The government’s most recent monitoring of woodland caribou populations do indicate that herds in B.C. are in decline, according to the province’s website.

…Colorado is facing a busy forest fire season, what with the record-dry conditions in parts of the state, low snowpack and a decade’s worth of beetle-killed pine crumbling across the state. But another factor, caused by decades of well-intended forest mismanagement, has led to this moment. Brad Piehl, who chairs the task force, showed a video of a TED Talk by Paul Hessburg, a research ecologist for the U.S. Forest Service. During the talk, Hessburg spoke about the danger and increasing frequency of “megafires” — wildfires that grow to more than 100,000 acres. While climate change is a heavy contributing factor, the way humans have managed forests for the past 100 years is a big part of the blame.

JUNEAU, Alaska― Local conservation and business interests represented by Earthjustice sued the U.S. Forest Service today to stop an old-growth timber sale on Kuiu Island in the Tongass National Forest. The lawsuit, filed in federal district court in Alaska, says the Forest Service’s environmental analysis is 11 years old and fails to consider new threats from the proposed 13.6 million board-foot sale on North Kuiu Island. The sale could wipe out 523 acres of old-growth forest. North Kuiu Island has become a recreational hotspot, and the timber sale would injure regional economic interests. …“Southeast Alaska’s economy has moved beyond the clear‐cuts of the past, and Kuiu Island is an example of that shift,” said Andy Moderow, Alaska director for Alaska Wilderness League.

As much as we love our two-by-fours and toilet paper, many of us have mixed feelings about logging. Those feelings can morph into straight-out hostility when it comes to removing the branches and treetops, which are increasingly chipped and burned for electrical power generation. “People think, ‘It’s bad enough to log, and now you are going to take away the branches that decay and then nurture the ecosystem?'” says Robert Froese, a forest scientist at Michigan Technological University. “But we wondered, what really is the role of branches?” So… Froese’s team decided to find out. What they discovered surprised them: when it comes to plant diversity, harvesting the whole tree does not have dire consequences. The results of their study have been published in the journal Forest Ecology and Management .

MANTON — Three generations ago, Dan Bundy’s grandfather harvested wood with a crosscut saw. His father also was a lumberman. He used better technology, but much of the lumbering techniques were the same as when his grandfather was cutting. …Bundy, who has operated Dan Bundy Logging out of Manton since 1987, knows a lot about the business. As a third-generation lumberman, you could say he was born to do this job; he’s also very good at it. The Michigan Association of Timbermen and the Sustainable Forestry Initiative Implementation Committee chose Bundy as the Logger of the Year. “For the past 30 years, Dan Bundy Logging has strived to stay up-to-date on the ever-evolving, technological advances of logging, but still staying conscious of responsible forest management,” wrote Wes Windover from Biewer Forest Management in regards to Bundy’s accomplishments as a lumberman.

University of Maryland Baltimore ecologist and colleagues expose bias in forest restoration studies

When embarking on a reforestation project, is it better to let an area regenerate on its own, or take active steps like planting trees? Recent high-profile research has suggested that natural regeneration is more effective. However, UMBC’s Matthew Fagan and colleagues have just published their own research in Science Advances suggesting those studies were biased, and advocating for a more nuanced approach to forest restoration. …All of the sites the studies used to measure the effectiveness of natural regeneration were secondary growth forests, but the sites that used human-aided regeneration ran the gamut from abandoned coal mines to fields compacted by years of cattle-grazing. The natural regeneration sites had a leg up on the sites selected for active regeneration, so it’s no surprise the former came out the winner.

QUEENSTOWN, Md. — For three generations, the Glotfelty Lumber Co. has been a shining example of the Master Logger philosophy: understanding the many functions of our forests and their role as caretakers of this important renewable resource. Known for excellent work in timber stand thinning, regeneration cuts, applying BMPs, and forest road design and construction in Maryland and West Virginia, the Glotfelty family is the 2017 Maryland Logger of the Year. Donald Glotfelty Sr., along with wife Betty, began their logging business in Oakland in the 1950s. As a progressive logger, he brought in new technology, being one of the first in his area to purchase a Timbco 445 C, a feller buncher which changed how the trees were harvested.

U.S. cities and suburbs are losing 36 million trees each year, study finds

…But a new research project, using a sophisticated approach to Google Earth images, shows just how large and widespread the [tree] losses are – and with impressive precision. In the five-year period between 2009 and 2014, American cities and suburbs lost approximately 175,000 wooded acres per year. That’s about 36 million trees annually, and an overall decline in the wooded portion of these metropolitan landscapes from 42.9 percent to 42.2 percent – which may seem small until you begin to consider, and price, the consequences. …Among the 50 states (plus District of Columbia) where urban tree losses were measured, only three had urban/community areas where wooded acreage increased, and their gains were statistically insignificant. Three others – Minnesota, Alaska and Wyoming – showed essentially no gain or loss. All the other states all saw wooded acreage decline significantly, with the largest loss rates in Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Oregon, Georgia and the District of Columbia.

Logging burns conceal industrial pollution in the name of ‘community safety’

Earlier this year, Melbourne and large areas of Central Victoria, experienced days of smoke haze and poor air quality warnings as a result of planned burns. It’s a regular event occurring every autumn. This smoke has been reported by both government and media outlets as largely the result of planned burns to reduce bushfire risk, along with agricultural burn-offs and increased use of wood heaters. But this is only part of the story. A good proportion of the smoke this autumn has actually come from the intensive burning of debris left behind after clearfell logging. This is essentially industrial pollution. To understand why clearfell logging burns are different compared with planned burns to reduce bushfire risk, we need to understand clearfell logging, which involves cutting most or all of the commercially valued trees in one single operation across a designated area (called a “coupe”).

On May 10, California Gov. Jerry Brown issued an executive order that aims to protect communities from wildfire and climate impacts. The California Biomass Energy Alliance said it is encouraged that Brown recognizes the importance of biomass energy. Executive Order B-52-18 was issued in the face of the worst wildfires in California’s history. It aims to combat dangerous tree morality, increase the ability of the state’s forests to capture carbon, and systematically improve forest management. …One component of the executive order directs the California Public Utilities Commission to “review and update its procurement programs for small bioenergy renewable generators to ensure long-term programmatic certainty for investor-owned utilities and project developers, as well as benefits to ratepayers.”
