Forestry: timber harvesting plans.

Abstract

The Z'berg-Nejedly Forest Practice Act of 1973 prohibits a person from conducting timber operations unless a timber harvesting plan prepared by a registered professional Forester has been submitted for those operations to the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The act authorizes the State Board of Forestry and Fire Protection to exempt from some or all of those provisions of the act a person engaged in specified forest management activities, including, until January 1, 2022, a person engaged in forest management whose activities are limited to the cutting or removal of trees on the person's property in compliance with specified laws relating to defensible space. This bill would extend the above exemption to January 1, 2026. The bill would also make nonsubstantive and conforming changes.
