Section 1072 - Stocking Sampling ProceduresThe procedures set forth in this article shall be adhered to when sampling for Stocking. More than one procedure for sampling may be used on Plans where more than one Regeneration Method or Intermediate Treatment is used in the Timber Operations.
The sampling procedures are divided into the following categories:
(a) Basal Area Stocking Sampling Procedure. This procedure shall be used where it is necessary to determine whether the specific basal area standards for such situations as the selection and shelterwood (preparatory steps) Regeneration Methods and commercial thinning intermediate treatment have been met.(b) Point Count Stocking Sampling Procedure. This procedure shall be used where it is necessary to determine whether specific point count standards must be met. For example, the procedure can be used for the clearcut and Seed Tree Regeneration Methods.(c) Combination Stocking Sampling Procedure. This procedure shall be used where Stocking Standards can be met using either basal area or point count, such as for the sanitation-salvage intermediate treatment, Alternative Prescriptions, or where exceptions to the Stocking Standards have been provided for in the Rules and are specified in the Plan.(d) Waiver Request Procedure. This procedure may be used to request from the Director a waiver of sampling procedures provided in 14 CCR § 1072(a), (b), or (c) where, based upon an RPF's, an RPF Supervised Designee's, or owner of Timberland's inspection, he/she has determined that the Stocking requirements of the Act and Rules have obviously been met.Cal.
