Abstract:
Forest Service contracts for the sale of timber and other forest products are bilateral contracts in which both contracting parties are bound to fulfill obligations reciprocally. By their nature bilateral contracts require both parties to routinely share information and enter into agreements pertaining to operations and performance. Some information collected under Forest Service contracts is required by laws, regulations and/or timber sale policies. Each contract specifies the information the contractor will be required to provide, including the timing and frequency of the information collection.
