The plan submitter, or successor in interest, shall:

(a) Ensure that an RPF conducts any activities which require an RPF.

(b) Provide the RPF preparing the Plan or amendments with complete and correct information regarding pertinent legal rights to, interests in, and responsibilities for land, timber, and access as these affect the planning and conduct of Timber Operations.

(c) Sign the NTMP certifying knowledge of the Plan contents and the requirements of this section.

(d) Within five (5) working days of change in RPF responsibilities for NTMP implementation or substitution of another RPF, file with the Director a notice which states the RPF's name and registration number, address, and subsequent responsibilities for any RPF required field work, amendment preparation, or operation supervision. Corporations need not file notification because the RPF of record on each document is the responsible Person.

(h) File with the Director a Minor Deviation identifying a Designated Agent that represents the plan submitter(s) at least five (5) days prior to filing the first Notice of Timber Operations, unless already identified in the NTMP.

(1) Within five (5) working days if active Timber Operations are occurring.

(2) Within thirty (30) working days if no active Timber Operations are occurring.
