Disposition versions

Full text
92.1. The Minister may, at any time, authorize the holder of a wood processing plant operating permit to harvest in place of an agreement holder in any forest management unit covered by the agreement, where forest production is sufficient such volume of timber as is required to replace the chips, sawdust, shavings or other processing residue, except bark, that the agreement holder fails to provide to the permit holder notwithstanding an agreement between them to that effect.
The authorization shall be granted by means of a forest management permit. Such a permit shall not be granted unless
(1)  the agreement referred to in the first paragraph has been entered into for a term of not less than one year;
(2)  the holder of a wood processing plant operating permit has notified the Minister, by written notice, of the existence of the agreement within 15 days of its signing and the notice is accompanied with a copy of the notification to the agreement holder;
(3)  the holder of the operating permit is unable to obtain timber from a source of supply comparable to the source which has failed him.
Before granting an authorization, the Minister shall give the agreement holder an opportunity to present observations, in particular with regard to the volumes of timber of which the wood processing plant permit holder may have failed to take delivery in accordance with the agreement referred to in the first paragraph.
