If an approved stand is to be harvested, this must be notified to the Land office at least 7 working days in advance. The forest owner must ensure that the harvest is carried out by registered authorized harvesters (registered with the BLE). The forest owner must have the work inspected. The propagation material may only be placed on the market in sealed packaging with accompanying documents.
