The fire prevention and suppression practices of every timber owner or operator conducting logging operations in this State must include, without limitation, lopping and scattering limbs from unutilized portions of trees and reproduction, felled or knocked down by logging or construction, within 100 feet of the traveled surface of any public road and main logging roads. Such lopping and scattering must be performed currently in the course of operations. In areas where a timber owner or operator chooses to pile and burn lopped slash, the slash must be piled and burned where the burning will not damage residual trees or reproduction. The piled slash must be burned at a safe time as determined by the State Forester Firewarden. Piles that fail to burn clean must be repiled and burned. All reasonable precautions must be taken to confine such burning to the piled slash.
