91. The annual volumes of timber that the holder may purchase under the guarantee are residual volumes determined by the Minister, taking into account

(1)  the timber requirements of the wood processing plant; and

(2)  other available sources of supply, such as timber from private forests or from outside Québec, chips, sawdust, shavings, recycled wood fibres, timber that may be harvested by holders of a permit to harvest timber to supply a wood processing plant as well as timber from local forests and from other forests in the domain of the State covered by a management delegation agreement.

For the purposes of subparagraph 2 of the first paragraph and, in particular, to assess the available timber from private forests that may be sold in a particular region, the Minister, before granting a timber supply guarantee, consults the boards of producers within the meaning of the Act respecting the marketing of agricultural, food and fish products (chapter M-35.1) or the organizations designated under section 50 of that Act. The consultation pertains, among other things, to the volumes of timber the Minister intends to specify in the guarantee.
