Failure to leave the required reserved timber shall be handled as described under Damages below. Down trees and logs. Conifer trees other than Xxxxxxx-fir except those within rights-of-way, skid roads, cable corridors, waste areas, and landings. All snags unless determined to be a fire or safety hazard. Felled snags shall not be yarded or removed. Conifers with crooks, breaks, missing tops, multiple tops, or other severe defects may be left. Leave some healthy, high quality trees to meet the number required may be necessary. All Xxxxxxx-fir trees larger than 22 inches DBH shall be reserved from cutting unless determined to be a fire or safety hazard by STATE, except those within rights-of-way, skid trails and roads, skyline cable corridors, and landings. Retain trees in Group Selection Areas according to the specifications in Exhibit E and as approved by STATE.

If damage to reserved timber occurs and is determined unavoidable by STATE, no charge will be made for damage. If PURCHASER's activities result in avoidable damage to reserved timber as determined by STATE, PURCHASER shall pay for such damage at the following rates: (a) Single the contract value shall be paid when: (1) Minor damage" to reserved timber occurs during the course of normal logging. Minor damage is defined as bark removed down to the cambium layer of a tree, such removal affecting at least 24 square inches, but less than damage defined as "major damage." (2) Trees must be cut in order to facilitate operations, or for safety around landings, as approved in writing by STATE. (b) Double the contract value or $50, whichever is greater, shall be paid when: (1) Major damage" to reserved timber is caused by operations of PURCHASER. Major damage is defined as follows: (A) Bark removed down to the cambium layer over an area of the bole which has one dimension (height or circumference) greater than the diameter of the tree, or any visible bark removal on the tree roots. (B) Residual basal area on any acre is less than the minimum specifications in the section titled, "Thinning Specifications." (2) More than 50 percent of live crown is removed. (3) Tree is knocked down, or leaning more than 10 degrees from vertical. (c) Treble the contract value or $100, whichever is greater, shall be paid when: (1) Reserved timber is intentionally cut or removed. (2) Reserved timber is intentionally damaged. (3) Repeated major damage occurs to reserved timber. (4) Any intentional "notching" or undercutting of reserved timber with an axe or saw occurs. For each species sold on a recovery basis, contract value is defined as the price per MBF listed in Section 44. If species is not listed in Section 44, the highest price listed in Section 44 shall apply. For species sold on a lump sum basis, the contract value for each species shall be determined by using STATE's unamortized timber appraisal value, multiplied by the bid-up factor. Bid-up factor shall be calculated by STATE using the following calculation: bid value all species/appraised value all species = bid-up factor. STATE may direct damaged timber to be left. In that case, payment for damage shall be reduced by single the contract value of such timber. The payment for reserved timber shall not release PURCHASER from liability for other damage to the property of STATE. If more than 5 reserved trees on any acre suffer "minor damage," or if any reserved timber suffers "major damage" as defined above, STATE reserves the right to: (A) Suspend felling and/or yarding until corrective measures have been agreed upon by STATE and PURCHASER. (B) Suspend felling and/or yarding from April 15 through July 31. (C) Require limitations on log length and/or the number of logs in each yarding turn.

For each species sold on a recovery basis, contract value is defined as the price per MBF listed in Section 44. If species is not listed in Section 44, the highest price listed in Section 44 shall apply. For species sold on a lump sum basis, the contract value for each species shall be determined by using STATE's unamortized timber appraisal value, multiplied by the bid-up factor. Bid-up factor shall be calculated by STATE using the following calculation: bid value all species/appraised value all species = bid-up factor. STATE may direct damaged timber to be left. In that case, payment for damage shall be reduced by single the contract value of such timber. The payment for reserved timber shall not release PURCHASER from liability for other damage to the property of STATE. If more than 5 reserved trees on any acre suffer "minor damage," or if any reserved timber suffers "major damage" as defined above, STATE reserves the right to:
(A) Suspend felling and/or yarding until corrective measures have been agreed upon by STATE and PURCHASER.
(B) Suspend felling and/or yarding from April 15 May 1 through July 3115.

(b) Trees that will damage roads shall be felled prior to road construction or improvement.
(c) Prior to felling in Areas I and II, PURCHASER shall arrange to have all the cutters who will work in Areas I and II, meet with STATE to review the requirements specified in the sections titled, "Felling," "Thinning Specifications," and "Reserved Timber." PURCHASER shall give STATE 48 hours advance notice before starting a new cutter on Areas I and II to allow STATE the opportunity to brief the cutter on these sections.
(d) Treetops below minimum log diameter shall be bucked off prior to yarding.
(e) Fell all trees greater than 21 inches DBH and less than 31 inches DBH not needed to meet residual stand specifications in the section titled, "Thinning Specifications,” except those designated as “Reserved Timber.”
(f) Trees other than Xxxxxxx-fir shall not be felled without prior approval from STATE except in rights-of-way, skid roads, cable corridors, and landings.
(g) Prior to felling a setting, all skid roads, landings, cable corridors, intermediate support trees, rub trees, and tailholds shall be marked on the setting by PURCHASER and approved by STATE. Felling of trees within cable corridors, skid roads, and landings shall be done prior to felling the remainder of the setting. Rub trees may be removed after the setting has been approved by STATE.
(h) Fell additional trees designated by STATE within the timber sale area which are infected with Phellinus weirii root rot and xxxx xxxxxx as directed by STATE.
(i) Mark the top of these stumps with two parallel chain saw cuts. Cuts shall be made perpendicular to the face cut and be a minimum of 1 inch in depth.
(j) Fallers are required to identify and fall trees that show infection by Phellinus weirii, a root disease, on Areas I and II. Any Xxxxxxx-fir that is within 50 feet of a xxxxx showing symptoms of Phellinus must also be felled. Prior to felling on the timber sale area, PURCHASER shall arrange to have all the cutters that will work on Areas I and II meet with STATE to review the indicators of this disease. STATE may require certain trees or snags, described by the preceding specifications, to be left standing if they are needed for wildlife habitat, or if the snags do not constitute a fire or safety hazard. STATE shall designate such trees or snags at the time of timber felling. Trees shall not be felled across timber sale boundaries, unless authorized in writing by STATE. Any trees that fall across timber sale boundaries shall be yarded back into the timber sale area prior to limbing or topping. PURCHASER shall employ the following timber cutting practices on the timber sale area(s), unless otherwise approved by STATE:
(1) Logs shall be no longer than 40 feet plus trim.
(2) Trees shall be felled to the longest lay, using the necessary means (wedging, jacking, etc.), favoring a quartering uphill lead.
(3) Trees shall not be felled across draws, over ridges, or across previously felled trees.
(4) Trees that cannot be controlled into desired felling patterns (snags, rotten-butted trees, heavy leaners, etc.) shall be felled first, and the direction of subsequently felled timber corrected accordingly.
(5) Maximum xxxxx height shall be 10 inches or 50 percent of xxxxx diameter, whichever is greater, unless otherwise approved by STATE. Heights shall be measured on the uphill side.
