Said time limit shall be exclusive of full days lost in Purchaser's Operations due to causes beyond Purchaser's control. Damage resulting from Purchaser's operations, due to failure to perform required work, shall be repaired by Purchaser. When not adequately protected from erosion by treatments such as out-sloping and cross draining or grass seeding, place lopped slash and logging debris in temporary roads, landings and skid trails. CT6.601# - EROSION CONTROL SEEDING (02/1987) Following completion of skidding and yarding operations in an area, Purchaser shall seed areas of exposed soil on skid trails, landings, firebreaks, and Temporary Roads where other erosion control measures described in BT6.6 will not result in satisfactory control of soil movement. Seed bed preparation shall consist of surface scarification on roads and landings sufficient for retention of seed. Seed shall be broadcast evenly at the rate of 10 pounds of seed per acre. Application shall be during the period May to November unless otherwise approved. No application work shall be done during extremely windy or rainy weather, or when the ground is frozen or otherwise unsuitable.

CT6.7# - SLASH TREATMENT (07/1999) All vegetative debris associated with construction of Specified Roads such as unutilized timber, brush and grubbed stumps is Construction Slash. Measures to be taken by Purchaser for treatment of Construction Slash are set forth in the attached road construction specifications and in item (1) below.
