Small folder: Register sheet refers to the development of regenerated kauri, podocarp and broadleaved forest. 50 increment plots, established 1962 for remeasurement and record of changes at approx 5-year intervals. Remeasurements in 1964, 1967 and 1972, 1982 (proposed, due little change and growth from 1962-67).Large folders - 2, with data for 1964 and 1967 measurements: this data was sent to NZFR in 1969? for comment.

General Note
A311 was given C (abandoned) status in review of plots by Pardy and Bergin, but subplots probably exist and data could be analysed by mensuration specialist to assess development of regenerated forest, partly logged and with some mature trees.
