SKYLINE YARDING REQUIREMENTS Sample Clauses

The Skyline Yarding Requirements clause sets out the specific standards and procedures for using skyline yarding systems in logging or forestry operations. It typically details the equipment specifications, safety protocols, and operational methods that must be followed when transporting logs via suspended cables. For example, it may require certain cable strengths, spacing, or anchoring methods to ensure safe and efficient movement of timber. The core function of this clause is to promote safety, efficiency, and environmental protection by regulating how skyline yarding is conducted on a worksite.
SKYLINE YARDING REQUIREMENTS. A skyline yarding system capable of yarding 1,600-2,000 feet external yarding distance uphill must be used. A carriage capable of 50 feet minimum lateral yarding distance is required. The carriage must maintain a fixed position on the skyline while lateral yarding. a. Skyline corridors shall be spaced not less than 75 feet apart unless approved by the Forest Officer. In the case of ridges where fan-shaped settings are required, the minimum distance at the widest divergence will be 150 feet. b. The location of all skyline corridors shall be approved by the Forest Officer in advance of any felling operations. c. Purchaser will be required to locate the following prior to approval by the Forest Officer: i. all corridors after determining adequate deflection (minimum 5%) ii. tail trees or tail holds iii. intermediate support tree iv. guyline anchors v. blind leads vi. decking areas d. Clearing width for corridors must be kept to the absolute minimum necessary to accommodate yarding and shall not exceed 12 feet. e. Except for lateral yarding, logs shall be yarded with one end suspended or fully suspended. f. Multispan skyline yarding required: To obtain adequate deflection, intermediate supports may be required on some corridors. g. High tail trees required: Tail trees or lift trees suitable to obtain adequate deflection may be required. h. When rigging is attached to trees not designated for cutting, tree plates or similar effective protective devices may be required and will be removed at completion of use. i. Mobile tailholds or mobile guyline anchors are restricted to areas where it is not necessary to build constructed trails for equipment access unless agreed upon in writing by the Forest Officer. j. In the event that special problems outside the scope of the skyline logging specifications are identified by either party, the Purchaser and the Forest Officer will mutually agree upon the solution.
