Scaling Adjustments Clause Samples
The Scaling Adjustments clause defines how contractual terms, such as pricing, deliverables, or service levels, are modified in response to changes in the scale or volume of goods or services provided. Typically, this clause outlines specific thresholds or formulas that trigger adjustments, ensuring that costs or obligations are proportionally increased or decreased as the scope of work changes. Its core function is to maintain fairness and predictability for both parties by automatically aligning contract terms with actual business needs, thereby preventing disputes over unforeseen changes in scale.
Scaling Adjustments. Forest Service shall check the accuracy of the Scaling performed on Na- tional Forest logs. Scaling will be satisfactory if performed within the accuracy standards stated in governing instruc- tions identified in A.9. In the event Forest Service check Scale(s) shows a variance in net Scale in excess of the al- lowable variance, an adjustment to volume reported Scaled may be made by Forest Service.
(a) One-half of the volume Scaled between the last satisfactory check Scale and the first unsatisfactory check Scale or, if a period of 120 days or more occurs without Scaling National Forest timber for stumpage, the adjustment will be applied to 100 percent of the volume Scaled after this period and
(b) 100 percent of the volume Scaled between unsatisfactory check Scales and
(c) One-half of the volume Scaled between the last unsatisfactory check Scale and the next satisfactory check Scale, or if no satisfactory check Scale is completed and a period of 120 days or more occurs without Scaling of Na- tional Forest timber for stumpage, the adjustment will be applied to 100 percent of the volume Scaled since the last unsatisfactory check Scale. Adjustments may increase or decrease the original Scaled volume. Adjustments will be applied to Integrated Re- source Account to correct charges for Included Timber, plus deposits, Scaled during the adjustment period.
Scaling Adjustments. The Forest Service shall check the accuracy of the scaling performed on National Forest logs. Scaling will be satisfactory if performed within the accuracy standards in governing instructions identified in Appendix F. In the event the Forest Service check scale(s) shows a variance in net scale in excess of the allowable variance, an adjustment to volume reported scaled may be made by the Forest Service. Such adjustment will be based on the difference between Forest Service check Scale(s) and original Scale for SPA volume Scaled within the adjustment period. The volume to which this difference will be applied will be: One-half of the volume Scaled between the last satisfactory check Scale and the first unsatisfactory check Scale or, if a period of 120 days or more occurs without Scaling National Forest timber for stumpage, the adjustment will be applied to 100 percent of the volume Scaled after this period and 100 percent of the volume Scaled between unsatisfactory check Scales and One-half of the volume Scaled between the last unsatisfactory check Scale and the next satisfactory check Scale, or if no satisfactory check Scale is completed and a period of 120 days or more occurs without Scaling of National Forest timber for stumpage, the adjustment will be applied to 100 percent of the volume Scaled since the last unsatisfactory check Scale. Adjustments may increase or decrease the original Scaled volume. Adjustments will be applied to Integrated Resource Account to correct charges for Included Timber, plus deposits, Scaled during the adjustment period.
