Millions of vehicle miles reduced from total commute to headquarters.

Equivalent C02 emission reduction in kilograms

Weyerhaeuser uses a variety of modes of transportation for our raw materials and finished products. We rely primarily on third parties to meet our transportation needs, but also operate our own systems. For example, we operate Westwood Shipping Lines, a subsidiary that provides custom transportation of containers, forest products and other cargo to Pacific Rim countries.

We have a 5,500-railcar private fleet and five short-line railroads that carry more than 90,000 carloads a year. Our private truck fleet includes more than 500 trucks that cover more than 26 million miles per year.

During 2006, we combined two previously separate organizational units—Procurement and Logistics. Centralization of our various modes of transport will enable us to increase efficiencies and capture significant cost savings.

Our Modern Shipping Fleet Protects Ocean Waters

Weyerhaeuser owns four shipping vessels that are five or fewer years old and are operated in compliance with Det Norske Veritas' Clean Class notation. Air and ocean-water quality have been improved due to the features of these ships, including:

• Reduced engine emissions
• Use of low-sulfur fuels
• Ballast water, fuel oil and garbage management plans
• Systems to exchange ballast at sea, keeping foreign species out of local ecosystems
• Double-hulled construction with inboard-located fuel tanks
• Less toxic paint on the ship bottom

Westwood is also testing a new system on one vessel that will allow for a more complete combustion of fuel, avoiding formation of soot and visible smoke.

Headquarters Employees Reduce Dependence on Cars

More than half of our corporate headquarters region staff are enrolled in the Weyerhaeuser Freeways program. The program encourages people to commute using vanpools, carpools and shuttle services to public-transit hubs or by walking or biking. In 2006, this program reduced the total vehicle miles driven to and from work by 1.2 million, which reduced emissions of carbon dioxide equivalents by more than 415,000 kilograms.
