REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Participants of the
Georgia-Pacific Corporation Hourly
401(k) Savings Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
with fund information of the GEORGIA-PACIFIC CORPORATION HOURLY 401(k) SAVINGS
PLAN (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information for the year
ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements and the schedules referred
to below are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits as of December 31,
1996 and 1995 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year
ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held
for investment purposes as of December 31, 1996 and reportable transactions for
the year ended December 31, 1996 are presented for purposes of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statement of net assets
available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present
the net assets available for benefits and the changes in net assets available
for benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and fund information have
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

GEORGIA-PACIFIC CORPORATION HOURLY 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULES
DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND PLAN DESCRIPTION
The accompanying financial statements present the statements of net assets
available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of the
Georgia-Pacific Corporation Hourly 401(k) Savings Plan.
Certain groups of hourly employees of Georgia-Pacific Corporation (the
"Employer") participate in the Plan. For unionized groups, participation in the
Plan must be specified in the applicable bargaining agreement; management
designates non-union participating groups. The Plan was established on April 1,
1994. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan upon the completion of
one year of service.
Plan assets are held in trust funds and invested on participants' behalf, with
all investment earnings for each fund credited to the accounts of participants
based on their proportionate share of the fund. Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company
(the "Trustee") is the Trustee and custodian for the Plan.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting.
The Trustee performs daily valuations of the Plan's investments and makes daily
distributions.
Investments are presented at market value. Market values of mutual funds are
determined principally from quotations as reported on various securities
exchanges.
The net appreciation (depreciation) in the market value of investments in the
accompanying statement of changes in net assets available for benefits reflects
the net difference between the market value and cost at the beginning and end of
the year for assets held throughout the year, as well as the difference between
the year end market value and cost for assets purchased during the year. For
assets sold or distributed during the year, the net appreciation (depreciation)
reflects the net difference between the market value and the cost at the
beginning of the year and the date of disposition.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires plan management to use estimates and
assumptions that affect the accompanying financial statements and disclosures.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.
NOTE 3. INCOME TAX STATUS
The Employer has filed for an initial letter of determination from the Internal
Revenue Service (the "IRS") as to the qualified status of the Plan. Under the
applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, a participant will not be
subject to federal income tax on either employer contributions or earnings of
the Plan until such time as distributions are made to the participant. In
management's opinion, the Plan is currently designed and being operated in
accordance with applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly,
no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying
financial statements.
NOTE 4. INVESTMENTS
Assets held under the Plan were invested by the Trustee, as directed by the
participants, in one or more of seven investment funds: the Short-Term U.S.
Treasury Portfolio, the Index Trust 500 Portfolio, the Georgia-Pacific Balanced
Fund, the Georgia-Pacific Stock Fund, the Bond Index Fund Portfolio, the
International Fund and the Money Market Reserves. The Plan permits participants
to change the investment of future contributions or existing balances up to four
times per year plus once each calendar quarter. The following is a description
of these investment funds:

the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index. The December 31,
1996 and 1995 investment market value of $56,413,262 and $31,330,451,

Growth Portfolio is long-term capital appreciation.
NOTE 5. MASTER TRUST
Effective June 8, 1994, the assets of the Georgia-Pacific Stock Fund were
transferred into the Georgia-Pacific Stock Fund Master Trust ("Master Trust").
The Master Trust was established to hold, administer and invest the assets of
the Georgia-Pacific Stock Funds of certain defined contribution plans qualified
under Internal Revenue Code section 401(k). These plans are administered by
Georgia-Pacific Corporation. Each participating plan's interest in the Master
Trust is based on the market value of assets transferred.
The market value of the Master Trust is allocated to the individual
participating plans based on the relative value of the assets of each Plan.
Interest income, dividends, and gains and losses (both realized and unrealized)
are allocated daily to the individual participating plans based on the relative
market values at the beginning of each day.
The Plan's interest in the assets of the Master Trust is included in the
accompanying schedule of assets held for investment purposes under the
"Georgia-Pacific Stock Fund Master Trust." A summary of the Master Trust balance
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 is shown below:

============ ====== ============ ======
NOTE 6. CONTRIBUTIONS
The Plan allows for both employer and employee contributions. For unionized
groups, the percent of eligible compensation a participant is able to
contribute, the percent of the Employer's match (if any) and whether certain
bonuses and compensation for unused vacation and holidays may be contributed are
governed by the collective bargaining agreement applicable to that group.
Participants may contribute from 1% to 12% of eligible compensation to the Plan
in whole percentages as specified in the plan exhibit applicable to that group.
In addition, if specified in the governing exhibit, participants may elect to
contribute certain bonuses and compensation for unused vacation days and
personal holidays to the Plan. The Employer matches the participants'
contributions to the extent provided in the exhibit applicable to the
participating group. In addition, participants may also contribute rollovers
from certain qualified plans.
Participant and Employer contributions are remitted to the Trustee monthly and
invested in the Vanguard Money Market Reserves U.S. Treasury Portfolio until
they can be credited to participants' accounts and invested in accordance with
participants' investment elections. Earnings on the short-term investments are
allocated to participants' accounts once each year.
NOTE 7. WITHDRAWALS AND TERMINATION
Under the Plan, contributions excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes (and, in specified cases, other components of the participant's account
balance) can be withdrawn only in the case of a financial hardship and are
subject to taxes in the year received. The withdrawals (either full or partial)
are paid in cash. Withdrawals of before-tax contributions result in a suspension
of the right to make employee contributions to the Plan for a period of at least
twelve months.
In the event of a Participant's termination of employment, death or attainment
of age 65, the Participant or his beneficiary receives in cash and/or
Georgia-Pacific Corporation common stock his entire account balance.
Participants are immediately 100% vested in employer contributions.
NOTE 8. PLAN TERMINATION
The Employer has reserved the right to amend, modify, suspend, or terminate the
Plan at any time. In the event the Corporation terminates the Plan, each
participant's account balance would be fully vested.
NOTE 9. FORM 5500
