  • The guidelines categorize clearing time requirements based on vegetation type, including trees that do not coppice (no herbicide required), trees that coppice (herbicide required), and bushy species such as bramble and lantana.
  • Clearing time is determined by the 'Percentage infestation', which is divided into five categories: Scarce (5.1–25), Scattered (25.1–50), Moderate (50.1–75), Dense (75.1–100), and Closed.
  • Specific actions for adult trees with medium to large canopies include logging, crosscut, and cut stump, and this category also includes debris that needs to be cut.
