Pine Bluff, AR 71603(Jefferson County)

Kingwood Forestry Services, Inc. has been authorized to manage the sale of +/-20 acres, more or less,in Jefferson County, Arkansas. The Big Creek Tract is located southwest of Pine Bluff, Arkansas and is accessed by a forestry woods road off of Highway 79. The property is being sold on a basis of lump sum sealed bids on Friday, June 10, 2011. Tract Description: The tract is described as the E of the SE of the NW of Section 21, Township 7 South, Range 10 West, Jefferson County, Arkansas, containing 20 acres, more or less. The timber on the property was harvested in the summer of 2010 followed by site preparation and tree planting. The property was sprayed on October 15, 2010 with a combination treatment of 48 Oz of Chopper Gen2 chemical to control hardwoods and 4 oz. of Sulfomet Extra to control spring grasses. The site was planted on February 2, 2011 using Weyerhaeuser Advanced Generation seedlings on a target of 6 x 12 spacing. A recent inspection of the tract showed that chemical treatments are holding well and seedling survival is good thus far. The topography of the tract is generally flat to slightly rolling with primarily Amy soils and a small area of Savannah fine sandy loam soils. The NRCS Web Soil Survey reports the average site index for Loblolly Pine at 89 feet (base age 50). The good soils make this a great site for long term timber growth and a nice pine plantation investment. The tract property is surrounded by other properties managed for commercial timber production. The access route shown is a woods road across adjoining industrial and private timberland properties and has been used by the current owner of the Big Creek Tract for timber harvesting and forest management activities; however,no formal easement exists for this access route.
