If an approved felling licence has replanting conditions applied to it and you are not happy with them, you should initially contact your local woodland officer and discuss the issue.바카라 사이트¯Â
However, if you are still unhappy with the conditions applied to your felling licence, you can appeal those conditions in writing to the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, as provided for in section 16 of the Forestry Act 1967.바카라 사이트¯Â
You may also appeal against the refusal of a felling licence to the Secretary of State, but only if you have been refused a licence twice for the same area and work proposals. Additionally, there must be at least 3 years between our first and subsequent refusal.바카라 사이트¯Â
