Common use of Quantity Estimate Clause in Contracts

Quantity Estimate. The estimated quantities of timber by species designated for cutting under BT2.3 and expected to be cut under Utilization Standards are listed in (a) Damaged timber under BT2.13; (b) Unintentionally cut timber under BT2.14; (c) Construction timber under BT2.15 cut outside of Payment Units and removed from construction use for uti- lization by Contractor; (d) Timber within clearing limits of Temporary Roads or other authorized clearings and that is not designated un- der BT2.31, BT2.33, BT2.34, or BT2.35; or (e) Dead or unstable live trees that are sufficiently tall to reach Contractor’s landings, work areas, or the roadbed of Specified Roads under BT2.32. Estimated quantities for such timber not included in AT2 shall be determined as stated in CT6.8. If Contract Area Map shows Payment Units where Marking or Measuring is to be completed after date of con- tract advertisement, the objective of Forest Service shall be to designate for cutting in such Payment Units sufficient timber so that Contract Area shall yield the approximate estimated quantities by species or species groups stated in AT2. However, the estimated quantities stated in AT2 are not to be construed as guarantees or limitations of the timber quantities to be designated for cutting under the terms of this contract. Quantity adjustments shall not be made under this Section after there is modification for Catastrophic Dam- age under BT8.32.
