Common use of Contract Term Extension Clause in Contracts

Contract Term Extension. “Contract Term Extension” means an extension of the term of this contract, at the request of Contractor, under this Subsection. This Subsection does not obligate Contracting Officer to grant Contract Term Extension. An extension can only be granted when Contracting Officer has determined that Contractor has diligently performed under the terms of this contract and when such extension is determined to be in the best in- terest of Forest Service. Contracting Officer may not grant Contractor’s written request for Contract Term Extension, unless Contractor’s Operations to date have been in reasonable compliance with contract terms and the approved Technical Proposal under G.3.1.1 and all contractual requirements have been met by Contractor and accepted by Forest Service in active stewardship project areas and on areas cut over at time of Contractor’s request, except for areas where work is in progress at time of Contractor’s request. Contractor’s burning of current slash or seeding or planting for erosion con- trol may be temporarily waived, if weather or other considerations make such work impractical.
