(b) unreasonably interfere with the Licensee's operations
under this Licence.
1.15 Where the Minister deletes an area under paragraph 1.12,
(a) the volume of timber referred to in subparagraph

is deemed to be reduced by an amount equal to the portion of
the allowable annual cut that the Chief Forester determines is
attributable to the deleted area, having regard to the factors
and information considered by the Chief Forester in his or her
most recent determination of the allowable annual cut.
1.16 If
(a) a management plan referred to in paragraph 2.01 or
approved under paragraph 2.27 provides that part of

specified part of the Licence Area or from a
specified type of timber or terrain, and the Licensee
fails to comply with that provision, and
(b) as a consequence, the Chief Forester, under Section
55.5 of the Forest Act, reduces the allowable annual
cut available to the Licensee,
then, in addition to any timber disposed of under paragraphs

Manager may dispose of a volume of timber, from areas of
Schedule B Land agreed to under paragraph 1.10 or specified
under paragraph 1.11, up to an amount equal to the amount by

under Section 55.5 of the Forest Act multiplied by the number
of years the reduction remains in effect.
1.17 The Licensee may harvest timber in the Licence Area that
(a) is not of a type specified in paragraph 1.02, or
