Guidelines for Emergency Dead Tree Removal
The Minister of Agriculture, Nizar Hani, has issued a circular regulating the emergency health cutting of dried forest trees in Lebanon, with the aim of protecting the forest heritage and reducing the spread of pests and diseases that threaten the forests. The circular stipulates exceptional and temporary procedures requiring technical inspection and the identification of completely dried trees, with precise organization of the cutting and treatment processes, along with comprehensive documentation of each operation. It emphasizes that cutting live or partially alive trees is not permitted and confirms the necessity of treating them before transportation. It also highlights the importance of protecting firewood from the transmission of pests through cutting, burning, or pesticide treatment. The circular aims for swift, well-coordinated intervention and strict monitoring to preserve forest health. It will remain in effect until the end of 2027, ensuring the protective management of forest resources based on scientific and preventive principles.
