18. Conditions concerning grant of removal permit
No removal permit shall be granted for any timber cut under a licence in Form 3 until each piece has been stamped with a Government Sale Marking Die by an officer duly authorised in that behalf. It shall be the duty of the licensee to have the timber so arranged as to facilitate the stamping of the same. Each piece of timber to be removed that exceeds 1/2 a cubic foot in measurement must, in addition, be clearly marked in paint or tar with a serial number, with the initials of the licensee in letters not less than 3 inches high and with the serial number of the tree by the licensee or his or her agent. However, such timber may be marked with the licensee's registered property mark instead of with his or her initials in paint or tar and the serial numbers may, in like manner, be stamped in figures not less than 3/4 of an inch high.
