separate envelope, the envelope must be clearly marked with the tract number and bidder's name on the outside of the envelope. Bid

forms may be obtained from the Forestry Area Office(s) listed above. Bids may be submitted by mail or in person at any time during

regular business hours prior to the bid submission deadline (July 24, 2019). Any or all bids may be rejected and sales canceled for good

and sufficient reasons.

TERMS OF SALE

- Interested persons must be registered at least four (4) business days prior to the auction by submitting an Annual Timber Sales

Purchaser Registration form. No bid will be accepted from anyone having a delinquent timber sale or trespass account or a willful timber

trespass with any public agency in Minnesota, or from anyone who does not qualify as a Responsible Bidder as defined in Minnesota

Statutes § 90.01 (12), or from anyone who has been debarred for cause by any public agency [M.S. § 90.041 (11)].

REGISTRATION AND ELIGIBLE BIDDERS

ADVANCE PAYMENT- The advance payment of fifteen (15) percent of the appraised value of the timber is due within fourteen (14) days from the bid award

date. Advance payments will not be accepted with the bid. Failure to provide the advance payment within 14 days of the bid opening date

will result in forfeiture of the permit and the purchaser will be held liable for the advance payment. The successful bidders's advance

payment will be kept on deposit by the State and applied against any billings for timber.

- For any bid increase in excess of $10,000 of the appraised price, a bid guarantee equal to fifteen (15) percent of the total bid price of the

timber less the down payment amount is required at the time the permit is signed. If the bid guarantee is not submitted with the signed

permit, the permit cancels, and the down payment forfeits to the State. If the permit holder fails to execute an effective permit, the bid

guarantee payment forfeits to the State.

BID GUARANTEE

- The purchaser or the purchaser's agents, employees, subcontractors, and assigns conducting logging operations on a timber permit

must comply with the general industry safety standards for logging (e.g., LogSafe) adopted by the Commissioner of Labor and Industry

and provide proof of compliance with these standards. The purchaser or the purchaser's agents, employees, subcontractors, and

assigns conducting logging operations on a timber permit must comply with the State of Minnesota mandatory insurance requirements

before harvest operations begin. A Cerfification of Compliance with the Minnesota Workers' Compensation Law form must be submitted

each year. Before the start of harvest operations, the purchaser must certify that a designated foreperson, who will be supervising active

logging operations, has a current certificate of completion from a logger education program (e.g., MLEP or FISTA) approved by the

Commissioner of Natural Resources.

PURCHASER AND LOGGER QUALIFICATIONS AND OPERATIONS REQUIREMENTS

- The purchaser must furnish security equal to the total bid value of the permit, LESS the amount paid as an advance payment and bid

guarantee. Security can be furnished in the following forms: Corporate surety bond, certified check, cashier's check, personal check,

money order, or by signing a Cutting Block Payment Agreement for individual cutting blocks, at least one business day prior to the start of

any permit operations. If the purchaser elects to receive a refund of the advance payment and bid guarantee, they must furnish security in

a form described above, for one hundred (100) percent of the total bid value of the timber purchased. If the deferred cash payment for

cutting blocks is selected, the advance payment and bid guarantee WILL NOT be refunded. If the purchaser elects to secure a permit by

prepayment of cutting block(s), they must make a written request on a form provided by the state. No harvesting is permitted until proper

security has been furnished to and approved by the Commissioner of Natural Resources or his agent.
