CY2011	us-gaap	Defined Benefit Plan Description Of Plan Amendment DefinedBenefitPlanDescriptionOfPlanAmendment	In September 2008, the Company changed its postretirement medical plan for active and retired salaried employees to shift retiree medical costs to the plan participants over a three year phase-out period. Accordingly, at the beginning of 2012, the Company’s intent is to no longer incur retiree medical costs for retired salary plan participants. The change was accounted for as a negative plan amendment and curtailment which resulted in a reduction to the retiree medical liability. The net impact of the reduction was an unrecognized gain in accumulated other comprehensive income of $7.7 million which was amortized over 1.9 years, the average remaining service period of the remaining active participants.

The Company owns, leases or manages approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">2.7 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> acres of timberland and real estate located in the United States and New Zealand.

The Company owns and operates two specialty cellulose fibers mills in the United States. In addition, the Company manufactures lumber in three sawmills in Georgia and engages in the trading of logs.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:12px;text-align:justify;text-indent:24px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Rayonier operates in four reportable business segments: Forest Resources, Real Estate, Performance Fibers, and Wood Products.

The Company is generally not required to pay federal income taxes on its U.S. timber harvest earnings and other REIT operations contingent upon meeting applicable distribution, income, asset, shareholder and other tests. The U.S. timber operations are primarily conducted by the Company’s wholly-owned REIT subsidiaries. Non-REIT qualifying and certain foreign operations, which are subject to corporate-level tax on earnings, are operated by our wholly-owned taxable subsidiary, Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc. ("TRS"). These operations include the Performance Fibers, Wood Products and trading businesses, as well as the Real Estate segment’s entitlement and sale of higher and better use ("HBU") properties.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:18px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Forest Resources</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:6px;text-align:justify;text-indent:24px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Company’s Forest Resources segment owns, leases or manages approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">2.6 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> acres of timberlands located in the U.S. and New Zealand. The Forest Resources segment conducts activities that relate to the harvesting of timber in addition to managing timberlands and selling timber and logs to third parties. In 2011, it acquired approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">308,000</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> acres of U.

An increasing portion of Rayonier’s acreage has become more valuable for development, recreational or conservation purposes than for growing timber. As a result, the Company has expanded its focus to include more value-added real estate activities such as seeking entitlements.
