Section 1104.1 - [Operative until 1/1/2025] Conversion ExemptionsTimber Operations conducted under this subsection shall be exempt from Conversion Permit and timber harvesting Plan requirements of this article except no tree that existed before 1800 A.D. and is greater than sixty (60) inches in Diameter at stump height for Sierra or Coastal Redwoods, and forty-eight (48) inches in Diameter at stump height for all other tree Species shall be harvested unless done so under the conditions or criteria set forth in subsection 1104.1(i). Timber Operations shall comply with all other applicable provisions of the Z'berg-Nejedly Forest Practice Act, regulations of the Board and currently effective provisions of county general plans, zoning ordinances and any implementing ordinances. The Notice of Conversion Exemption Timber Operations shall be considered synonymous with the term "Plan" as defined in 14 CCR § 895.1 when applying the operational Rules and regulations of the Board.
(a) This conversion exemption is applicable to a conversion of Timberland to a non-timber use only, of less than three acres in one contiguous ownership, whether or not it is a portion of a larger land parcel and shall not be part of a THP. This conversion exemption may only be used once per contiguous land ownership. If all or a portion of the contiguous land ownership has been subject to prior, unpermitted timberland conversion, a conversion exemption hereunder shall not be accepted unless the Director determines that it would be consistent with the purposes of the Act. No Person, whether acting as an individual, acting as a member of a partnership, or acting as an officer or employee of a corporation or other legal entity, may obtain more than one exemption pursuant to this section in a five-year period. If a partnership has as a member, or if a corporation or any other legal entity has as an officer or employee, a Person who has received this exemption within the past five years, whether as an individual or as a member of a partnership, or as an officer or employee of a corporation or other legal entity, then that partnership, corporation, or other legal entity is not eligible for this exemption. "Person," for purposes of this section, means an individual, partnership, corporation, or any other legal entity.

Unless otherwise required, Slash greater than one inch in Diameter and greater than two feet long, and Woody Debris, except pine, shall receive full treatment no later than April 1 of the year following its creation, or within one year from the date of acceptance of the conversion exemption by the Director, whichever comes first.2. All pine slash three inches and greater in Diameter and longer than four feet must receive initial treatment if it is still on the parcel, within seven (7) days of its creation.3. All pine Woody Debris longer than four feet must receive an initial treatment prior to full treatment.4. Initial treatment shall include limbing Woody Debris and cutting Slash and Woody Debris into lengths of less than four feet, and leaving the pieces exposed to solar radiation to aid in rapid drying.5. Full treatment of all pine Slash and Woody Debris must be completed by March 1 of the year following its creation, or within one year from the date of acceptance of the conversion exemption by the Director, whichever comes first.6.
