SCFA Membership Dues Schedule

Revised November 9, 2000

To calculate your fair share dues investment when more than one of the following categories apply, you must select the option that returns the highest dues amount. When determining a company membership that could be based on forest acreage, tonnage, or lumber production, select either the forest acreage category or the total wood production category(s), whichever results in the higher dues investment. Dues are based strictly on the honor system for the previous year production figures.

SCFA is classified by Internal Revenue Service as a 501-C6 non-profit organization. Dues are tax deductable as a business expense.
