NOTICE OF TIMBER SALE

Little Governors Tract

Lee County, NC
102+- GPSd Acres

Tract Description:
Dont let the name fool you. Little Governors means big things when it comes to timber. For Hardwood mills this
is the type of timber sale that will resonate for a long time to come, especially with the company that comes in second.
With more quality White Oak Saw-Timber than you can shake a stick at we feel confident youll love this tract.
Highlights are: The easiest cruising youll ever do; All WEATHER LOGGING; above par, grade Saw-Timber; super
fine pine saw timber; formidable access; and, as I mentioned earlier, perhaps the best stand of Hardwood Saw-Timber
some of you will ever cruise. Please see attached Map & Volume Sheets Published volumes are meant only as a guide and
companies are encouraged to perform their own analysis to make helpful comparisons.
Type of Harvest:
Clear-Cut Harvest of all Merchantable Forest Products, with the following exceptions: NO blue painted or flagged
trees may be harvested. Trees within SMZs with a DBH greater than 16 may be harvested. In orange flagged
aesthetic buffer areas all pine trees are to be harvested and all orange painted trees may be harvested.
Sale Type:
Lump Sum Sealed Bid. A 5% earnest money deposit may be required of the successful high bidder. A $1,000.00
performance bond is required along with a pre-harvest meeting to discuss logging and harvest requirements.
Performance Bond will be held by American Timber Services, LLC in an escrow account. The landowners reserve the
right to reject any and all bids.
