Common use of Acceptance of Work Clause in Contracts

Acceptance of Work. Upon Purchaser’s written request and assurance that work has been com- pleted, Forest Service shall perform an inspection within 5 days, excluding weekends and Federal holidays, so as not to delay unnecessarily the progress of Purchaser’s Operations. Such a request may be for acceptance of: (a) Any reasonable portion of Specified Road listed in the Schedule of Items; (b) Specific requirements on a subdivision of Sale Area (such as logging, slash disposal, erosion control, or snag felling); or (c) All contract requirements on a subdivision of Sale Area. Forest Service may perform such inspections without request from Purchaser. Within 2 days of inspection, excluding weekends and Federal holidays, Forest Service shall furnish Purchaser with written notice either of acceptance or of work remain- ing to be done. In the event that Forest Service is unable to make such inspection within 5 days of Purchaser’s request, Purchaser shall be notified in writing of necessity for postponement and time when inspection can be made. The same final approval procedure shall be used at the end of Purchaser’s construction period on any completed portion of road. When all contractual work of Purchaser has been ac- cepted for any subdivision of Sale Area or cutting unit identified on Sale Area Map, subdivision or cutting unit shall be eliminated from Sale Area on written notice of ei- ther party to this contract.
