A minimum stump height of 12 inches above ground level on the uphill side shall be left in the units listed above.
The boundaries of units are marked on three (3) sides of the cutting unit boundary trees with vertical stripes of ORANGE paint extending from diameter breast height (DBH) upwards approximately three (3) feet. The middle stripe of paint faces the cutting unit and the other two stripes face on line with the cutting unit boundary. In addition, each boundary tree has a horizontal stump mark painted on the downhill side of the tree at ground level. Trees used for boundary designation are not to be cut.
