ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION was prepared for the Deep Six Density Management Reoffer

THIS TIMBER SALE NOTICE does not constitute the decision document for purposes of protest and
appeal of a forest management decision. Consistent with 43 CFR Subpart 5003-Administrative
Remedies, the notice of a timber sale, when published as a legal ad in a newspaper of general

aforementioned decision document in the newspaper. It is anticipated that the decision document
will be published in The News-Review newspaper on or about March 27, 2012. BLM does not
warrant publication on this exact date. All parties considering protest of the timber sale decision
document are encouraged to review the aforementioned newspaper to ensure accurate knowledge of
the exact publication date.
The Deep Six Density Management timber sale is a reoffer of a previously offered sale. Because this is
not new decision, the principle of Administrative Finality applies. This is detailed in the legal notice to

publication on this exact date.

NOTES:
1.
A revised Special Provision has been added to the contract which enables the Contracting Officer to
suspend the contract to facilitate protection of certain plant or animal species, and /or to modify or terminate
the contract when necessary to: (1) Comply with the Endangered Species Act, or; (2) Comply with a court
order, or; (3) Protect species which were identified for protection through survey and manage and/or
protection buffer standards and guidelines established in the ROD and RMP.
This contract provision limits the liability of the Government to the actual costs incurred by the Purchaser
which have not been amortized by timber removed from the contract area.
2.
This contract contains provisions for the sale and removal of additional timber necessary to facilitate safe
and efficient Purchaser operations. It is estimated that approximately 23 MBF of such additional timber may
be removed under the contract, but is not included in the advertised sale volume nor was it included in the
timber sale appraisal. This estimate is a net figure reduced by the estimate of the volume of trees previously
marked for cutting, which the Authorized Officer may elect to reserve.
3.
Seasonal operating restrictions apply to this sale regarding road work, falling, bucking, yarding, loading, and
hauling. Refer to Section 41(B)(11-15) and the Exhibit E for details.

season in which they are used for harvest activity. The Purchaser is required to perform decommissioning
operations. Decommissioning operations will include water-barring, road blocking, and covering the road
with logging slash to the satisfaction of the Authorized Officer. Refer to the Exhibit D for details. If an
unsurfaced spur will overwinter before decommissioning, that spur shall be winterized. See Section 41(F)(1)
for details.
