Cal. Code Regs. tit. 14 § 1051.1

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 25, June 21, 2024

Section 1051.1 - Contents of Modified THP

A Plan submitted under 14 CCR § 1051 above shall contain all the applicable provisions of 14 CCR § 1034 and the RPF shall:

(a) Identify and map those areas currently understocked and not to be harvested that are at least 3 acres in size.

(b) Use a topographic map base with a minimum scale of 1:12,000.

(c) Certify in the THP that the conditions or facts stated in items 1-16 above exist on the THP area at the time of submission, and that in the preparation, mitigation, and analysis of the THP, no identified potential significant effects remain undisclosed.

(d) Certify that a meeting will be held at the THP site before Timber Operations commence with the RPF responsible for the Plan or Supervised Designee and the licensed Timber Operator who will be operating on the THP where the contents and implementation of the Plan have been reviewed and discussed.

Operations pursuant to this section shall use an alternative to the Cumulative Impacts assessment specified in 14 CCR §§ 932.9, 952.9, and Board Technical Rule Addendum No.2. Operations conducted according to this section are presumed to be unlikely to cause a significant adverse impact to the environment due to the specific restrictive mitigations required in (1) - (15) above.

This presumption of unlikely impacts shall not apply to MTHPs for which:

1) the Director determines it does not meet the criteria of subsection 14 CCR § 1051(a), or

2) the Director determines in consultation with trustee or responsible agencies, or upon review of public comments that a fair argument exists that significant individual or Cumulative Impacts will result from Timber Operations. Where issues (a fair argument) are raised the RPF shall complete the appropriate portion of Board Technical Rule Addendum No. 2 and submit that information for the Director's review.
