In an area reforested by natural regeneration, planting, or artificial seeding, a regeneration report shall be submitted within (1) five years after timber harvest in Region I; a visual overview is acceptable in areas of obvious reforestation, however, the division may require a regeneration survey if the division determines the visual overview is inaccurate; (2) seven years after the timber harvest in Region II or III. (b) The division will review a regeneration report within 30 days and will inform the forest landowner if field verification is planned. Field verification must occur within 12 months after receipt of the regeneration report. If the report or field verification shows that the reforestation requirements of 11 AAC 95.375 have not been met, the division will direct the forest landowner to correct the deficiencies according to a reasonable timeline set by the division.
