5. The attention of all tenderers is drawn to the fact that the
   local controlling body may require the successful tenderer to pay
   any claims or charges which may be made by that body for the
   maintenance of the road over which the timber may be transported,
   and before a sawmill license is issued a letter indicating that satisfactory arrangements have been made in this connection must be produced to the undersigned.

6. Intending tenderers are expected to visit the locality and to satisfy themselves in every particular on all matters relative to the sale.

7. Each tenderer must state the total price that he is prepared
   to pay for the timber. The highest or any tender will not necessarily
   be accepted, and the timber described is submitted for sale subject
   to the final acceptance of the tender by the Commissioner of State Forests.

8. The right is reserved to the Commissioner of State Forests
   to withdraw from sale any or all of the said timber either before or after the closing-date for receipt of tenders.

9. If no tender is accepted for the timber herein mentioned it
   will remain open for application for three months from the closing-date of tenders.

10. Tenders should be on the special form obtainable from
    any office of the State Forest Service, and should be enclosed in envelopes addressed "Conservator of Forests, Hokitika," and endorsed "Tender for Timber."

The conditions, which will be inserted in the license to be issued
to the purchaser, and further particulars may be obtained on application to the undersigned or to the Director of Forestry, Wellington.
