This bid page outlines the sale of timber at MCB Camp Lejeune Mainside for FY26 on a Pay-As-Cut basis. It details various timber classifications like Pine Grade, Pine Saw Timber, Hardwood Saw Timber, and different pulpwood and chip categories, each with estimated quantities and unit price fields. A critical condition for bidders is that all unit prices must meet or exceed the government's estimated unit price for each product; failure to do so for even one product will result in the entire bid being rejected. The winning bidder will be determined by the highest grand total, calculated by multiplying unit prices by estimated quantities, provided all unit price conditions are met. The document explicitly states that the estimated volumes are not guaranteed and may vary significantly. For products with no quantity shown, a unit price is established for potential additional timber harvested. This document serves as a standard bid solicitation within government procurement for natural resources.
