Full text
192. Persons or bodies that carry on work or cause work to be carried on in a forest, other than forest development activities carried on under a plan drawn up or approved by the Minister, must inform the forest protection organization operating in the area concerned of their intention and obtain from the organization a forest protection plan, if the organization considers it expedient. If the work is to be carried on outside an intensive protection zone, the costs incurred to determine the necessity of obtaining a plan and, where applicable, those relating to the preparation of the plan are to be assumed by the person or body that carries on the work or causes it to be carried on in the forest.
The plan must be submitted to the Minister for approval. The costs of the surveillance operations provided for in the plan are assumed by the person or body that carries on the work in the forest.
