Partial removal of vegetation

This involves felling trees growing outside the forest, which will have to be permitted by the Šumava National Park Administration (in the Pod Borkovou Nature Reserve) and the town of Horní Planá outside the Nature Reserve. The project assumes that approximately 2,100 m3 of rough timber will be extracted using a DVT. Another approximately 500 m3 will be extracted using a JMP and transported to the OM. In total, we expect to transport 2,600 m3 of rough timber to the collection point (2,200 m3 within stage I and 400 m3 within stage II). This wood will be sold in 2 m and 4 m assortments. We also expect to harvest 3,400 m3 of rough timber, which will be left on site and placed in the drainage channels between the barriers. In total, a maximum of 6,000 m3 of rough timber will be harvested. To this can be added a rough estimate of 1,700 m3 of brushwood, of which approximately 700 m3 will be used to create travel routes. The rest will be bound into small dam cylinders and placed in canals together with the rough wood. These are the maximum volumes of wood harvested. They may be reduced when marking out the harvests.
