Volumes: The tonnage has been estimated by the woodland manager. Access, Extraction and Stacking:
See attached Access and Hazard map. Timber Haulage access is off the minor council road NE of Dinas Mawddwy, past the farmhouse, then up to the Main turning and stacking area. From here a narrower and steeper internal access climbs up to the clearfell area. The Vendor is responsible for the haulage route, the Purchaser responsible for the internal access route and its reinstatement to current condition on completion of the contract. The Ford Crossing must also be monitored by the purchaser to avoid dirtying the water.
Hazards: Hazards are detailed on the attached plan. Notably water courses and
steep internal tracks.
Forest Plan Ref: Felling License 050/164/17 - 18 Felling: All conifers in the sale area should be felled unless instructed by the
woodland manager. All material above 5cm diameter is to be removed from the site by the purchaser. Conifer stumps will be treated with urea supplied at the purchaser’s expense unless specifically agreed with the woodland manager prior to commencement of harvesting.
Brash: Brash is to be kept clear of all watercourses during the felling
operations. Purchasers should state their proposals for leaving the site clear and ready for replanting following discussion with the woodland manager and brash should be cut into lengths of less than 2 metres.
Payment: Payment terms are to be on a monthly basis with the purchaser
producing self billing invoices based on weight tickets or as otherwise agreed between the parties. A down payment may be payable before entry and offset against the penultimate payment or as otherwise agreed between the parties.
Contract: An Agreement will be required to be signed by both parties. A copy is
available on request.
Although the vendor intends to sell the timber, the vendor will not be bound to accept the highest or any other offer.
Viewing: The timber may be viewed at any reasonable time during daylight
hours, as long as a copy of this document is carried. Please contact the woodland manager to arrange a viewing.
