229. The Minister shall, before 1 April 1990 and as available inventory data allow, make to each person entitled to obtain a timber supply and forest management agreement under section 219 or 221 a proposal accompanied with a notice informing him of his intention to close the agreement on the basis of that proposal and inviting him to submit his observations to him within 60 days of the notice.

After the expiry of the period determined in the first paragraph, the Minister shall send to the interested person a final proposal with a notice enjoining him to inform the Minister in writing, within 30 days, of his decision to accept or refuse the proposed agreement.

Where the person to whom the notice is sent fails to inform the Minister in writing of his decision to accept the proposal as drawn up within 30 days of the date of the notice provided for in the second paragraph, the person is considered to have refused the proposal. From the date of expiry of the thirty-day period, sections 219 to 226 and 229 to 235 cease to have effect in respect of that person.

Where the interested person accepts the proposal before the expiry of the period determined in the second paragraph, the Minister shall register it by deposit in accordance with section 38. The proposal as registered constitutes the first timber supply and forest management agreement.
