Nev. Admin. Code § 528.060 - Skid trails, roads

1. Skid trails and landings must be limited in number and size consistent with economical logging. Skidding must be conducted to prevent unnecessary damage to reserve trees, seed trees and reproduction.

2. All skid trails on slopes exceeding 10 percent must be provided with waterbars acceptable to the state forester firewarden to prevent excessive erosion prior to removal of equipment. The state forester firewarden encourages the use of slash on skid trails to help prevent soil erosion. Waterbars must be constructed at intervals not to exceed 300 feet and less if conditions of topography or soil should require, in order to prevent excessive erosion at all natural drainage points or other critical locations.

3. All roads in the logging area either constructed or utilized for the logging operation must be kept open for fire agency use during entire period of operation. They must be properly waterbarred and drained to prevent excessive erosion after logging operations have been completed and prior to removal of equipment.
