<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>The quick and dirty answer: an
‘ISA plant appraisal’ doesn’t really exist. The ISA PVAC
(Plant Appraisal and Valuation Committee) was/is involved as one of the
contributors to the CTLA guides (among other groups such as ASCA), but there is
not an ISA method per se. Anyone asking probably just doesn’t know that
it should really be referred to as CTLA, and that’s what they’re
really asking for. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Now, what CTLA method they are after is
another story. There are several appraisal methods outlined in the Guide, and
it’s a matter of choosing the most reasonable method for the situation.
It’s true (IMO) that the Trunk Formula Method (which is what I believe
you’re generally referring to) is not well-suited to many situations, so
something like timber value may actually be a reasonable choice. Alternately,
when we’ve appraised or reviewed appraisals of plantations that for
whatever reason must be done using the TFM, we would typically expect to use a
fairly low (maybe 10-15%) location rating, thus accounting for the fact that
it’s not an appraisal of an individual tree that might have a high
contribution to the site. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Another method (which was recently
brought to my attention, as I had overlooked it in the guide) is the
Contributory Value – basically, how much does the plantation contribute
in terms of value to the property? It’s outlined on Pg. 100 if you have
the 9<sup>th</sup> edition of the guide handy. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Like others have said, cost of cure or
replacement cost could also work.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color="#1f497d" face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>I’m sure this muddies the waters a
bit, but appraisal can be tricky. I think they key is to come up with something
that seems reasonable and is defensible. I’m sure others on the list will
also have more to say on the matter. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
