Supplemental reforestation may be required three growing seasons after harvest, if the Department of Lands determines that stocking levels do not meet the above standards. Reforestation must be completed before the end of the fifth growing season after harvest.
Some lands are exempted from reforestation requirements:
- noncommercial forest lands;
- lands being converted to nonforest use;
- a forest practice that will result in 10 acres or less below minimum stocking levels.
