(a) The purpose of these procedures is to implement the California Forest Improvement Act of 1978 (Public Resources Code Sections 4790 through 4799.05, cited herein as "PRC__________"). Articles 1 through 8 of these procedures guide landowners participating in cost sharing agreements, RPFs employed by those landowners, and the Director when selecting projects and administering cost sharing agreements, and inform interested members of the public about the program.
(b) Due to the variety of forest conditions and diverse needs of forest landowners throughout the state, these procedures provide flexible standards which can apply in many situations. These standards are designed to give the Director the flexibility to select highly promising and badly needed forest resource improvement projects consistent with the provisions of the Act.
