Georgia's County Logging and Trucking Ordinances
|
|
As a result of State law changes (HB 1154 of 2001) which was amended into OCGA 12-6-24, local governing authorities may by ordinance require notice of certain timber harvesting operations; to prescribe the content of such notice and related procedures; to provide for certain surety bonds or letters of credit not to exceed $5,000; to provide penalties for violations of notice not to exceed $500; to prohibit local governing authorities from imposing other notice, security, or permit requirements for timber harvesting or forest products hauling operations.
This list is subject to change. Please check with local governing authority for current information.
