USDA Announces Pandemic Assistance for Timber Harvesters and Haulers Program (PATHH)
The Pandemic Assistance for Timber Harvesters and Haulers Program (PATHH) provides up to $200 million to support timber harvesting and timber hauling businesses that experienced a loss of at least 10 percent gross revenue from January 1 through December 1, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. Individual loggers or truckers, or legal entities, may be eligible for up to $125,000 in financial assistance through this program.
Eligible program applicants will receive up to two PATHH payments based on the following payment calculation, where both years reflect gross revenue from January 1 through December 1.
Expected PATHH Payment = (2019 Gross Revenue – 2020 Gross Revenue) x 0.80
